Oak-aged Tripel
This Belgian-style tripel was aged in bourbon barrels for many months. The resulting booozy beer is robust yet smooth with that classic spicy and fruity Belgian-yeast character.

This is a really dull amber. The aroma is all about the sticky phenols and overly vanilla bourbon notes. On the palate, very sweet, with a bunch of sweet candy notes, lots of wood and alcohol. The base beer is clearly too sweet, and then adding a sweet finish on top of that, it's pretty intensely sweet, and not well-balanced.

650mL bottle, pours a cloudy dark orange with a small off-white head. Aroma is very floral and estery, with candied sugar, estery notes, and some oak barrel notes. Flavour is boozy and barrel-heavy, with lots of estery notes, candied sugar, and Belgian yeast. Boozy, sweet, and totally inauthentic. I appreciate the attempt, but this just isn't on the mark.
