Belgian Style Tripel made with Raspberries.
We've added 14 pounds of raspberries per barrel to our original Tripel Horse recipe and bottled it for you to enjoy at home. The raspberry is perfectly balanced in this smooth Belgian style beer.

Slightly hazy copper coloured body with a bright pink and ruby tint, all with a nice and relatively large four to five centimetre tall off-white head. Aroma of pure raspberries, yeast, coriander seed, alcohol, honey and a good deal of malts and some moderate caster sugar note on the end. Medium-bodied; Strong yeastie flavour at first with a ton of raspberry and fruit flavours noticeable at first with some grain, full malts and a lot of bread and alcohol notes near the end. Aftertaste shows some more yeast, alcohol, coriander seed and curaco and a bunch more raspberry and cherry flavours towards the end with still a lot of residual sweetness at the tail end. Overall, a nice fruit-based Tripel with a good dose of alcohol and sugars that shows nicely throughout and leaves a good complexity towards the end with yeast, alcohol and fruits all around the edges. I sampled this twleve ounce bottle purchased from Liqour Outlet in Boonton, New Jersey on 08-March-2018 for US$2,99 sampled in my hotel room in Lancaster, Pennsylvania on 18-March-2018.

12 ounce bottle. Hazy amber color with a slight pink hue. Large rocky beige head. Aroma has yeasty, sulphury, raspberry fruit notes. Upfront, bittersweet fruity malt has yeasty notes. Complex and flavorful, their is an interesting style mashup of a Belgian Tripel and a Framboise Geuze. Granted, their is a lacking of the wild yeast associated with a Geuze, but the essence is still there. The combination works. There is a warming alcohol prescence that shows up late. This makes for an excellent dessert beer. Kudos to River Horse.
