An interesting premise for a tripel by aging it in apple brandy barrels. No problem here, I appreciate tripels of all stripes. My 16 oz can was canned on 9/30/22 and came to me by way of Halftime. I have a Belgian-style glass from Delerium prepared to receive the pour. A hazy, yellow going into gold liquid with a frothy head of completely white foam that quickly dissipates. The nose is faintly green apples with yellow fruit and grain. I lift the glass and sip. It initially strikes me as a tripel cocktail. Nectarines, apricots, a boozy-brandy effect, oak, honey and white bread. Nice and thick for a mouthfeel. A quite enjoyable take on a tripel. Well done.

Bottled. Hazy goldeny orange colour with a mediumsized creamy longlasting white head, which leaves some lace. Aroma is fruity, some mild alcohol, spices, yeast and mild funk with some wooden notes. Flavour is also having the same elements in a rather nice balance. Pleasant, and actually for once a rather true to the style old school triple. Yum!

Golden color. The typical bubblegum aroma and sweetness of triples is replaced by sweet apple flavor. Reminds me of a sweet apple cider.

75 cl bottle from Dickinsonbeer. Thanks! Dark golden color. Strong apple juice, oak and calvadosaroma. Hint of pepper. Very alcoholic beer. Strong flavor of wooden barrels with calvados. Considerable dry out effect because of the wood and the alcohol. Peppery aftertaste. Out of balance because of the overwhelming alcohol but still a pleasant, complex and tasty beer. Try again with an 8% tripel?

On tap at Man in the Moon. Golden with a white head. Sweet with fruit, yeast, some esters and oak. The body was full and the finish with warming alcohol.

Almost a honey mouthfeel, apple at first and then a nice boozy finish. Yummy
