At Kasteel Brouwerij Vanhonsebrouck we mature our Kasteel Tripel in recycled cognac barrels. This beer style is called ‘Barrel Aged’, aging beer in recycled barrels. Our brewer fills previously used cognac barrels with Kasteel Tripel to ensure that the beer retains the taste of cognac without losing its own identity. The Trignac is a full-mouthed degustation beer and appeals to anyone who loves beer and cognac!

750ml bottle thanks to Steveoj pours out golden topped with a white head. Nose is sweet candy apple barrel notes pit fruit very nice. Taste is more of the spice sweet pit fruit and a barrel hit.

Bottle from Albertsons. Medium golden, bright, small, lasting fluffy head. Sharp, yeasty aroma. Taste is a bit fuller, yeast, floral notes. Savory notes.Hints of barrel come through. Mellow, alcohol sneaks up on you.

Sample from the bottle at beer meets wood last weekend. Dark yellow with a hint of hazy and a large long lasting bubbly white head. Light sweet honey maltiness offset with bits of fruit earthy spicy yeast notes and that deep grape cognac flavor. A sipper for sure but damn tasty.
