The Bruges city beer of old, potent and bitter-sweet BRUGGE Tripel has a beautiful golden-blond colour and a firm, rocky head, leaving a trail of Bruges lace on the glass. The aroma has a typical touch of smoked phenolic, and the flavour is bitter, rich and creamy.
The secret of the BRUGGE Tripel city beer is the unique composition of the “gruut” blend of herbs and spices used to enrich its flavour and aroma. In Bruges, anyone brewing beer was obliged to purchase “gruut” from the city’s herbs and spices shop, known as the “Gruuthuse”. Jan van Brugge and his descendents, who later changed their name to Van Gruuthuse, had a monopoly on the sale of Bruges “gruut” that lasted late into the 16th century. At the same time, taxes were levied to the Count of Flanders. In BRUGGE Tripel, this medieval tradition continues.

Flaska från Beernavigator, 1,5 år gammal. Gyllengul klar med ett småbubblig skum som snabbt lägger sig. En trippel på den sötare delen av trippelspektrat. Söta maltsmaker med söta äpplen, apelsinblom och lite syltade apelsinskal och en ganska markerad apelsinskalsbeska som räddar balansen. En hel del alkoholvärme utan att alkoholen slår igenom nämnbart. Kanske inte toppklass men en hel del kvalité ändå.

Bottle, as Brugge Triple gruut. Rose gold with a white head. Unrefined but cheerful grainy aroma with some honey, orange peel, surprisingly mild spices. And so it tastes. Not all that sweet, alcohol is reasonably well hidden, bitter and just about dry enough at the end. Not very classy but OK.

F: white frothy but quick gone and forms thin film. C: hazy yellow orange. A: malt, banana, yeast, hint of earthy/cellar notes. T: malt, white sugar, green pepper, coriander, orange peels, citrus, nice grass bitterness, medium body and lively carbonation, typical Belgian tripel not very special but I think a little under ratted.

33cl bottle at Taj Mahal, Brugge. Pours clear golden with a decent, white head. Medium fruity with notes of Belgian yeast, spices and malt. Medium sweet with flavour on the mild side, but fair enough. Nothing special, but quite okay.
