Don’t let Tripel’s light color and delicate aroma fool you, this is one serious beer brewed with maximum effort. First, we introduce freshest barley to crystal filtered water. Second, we add the best hops shipped directly for Europe. Third, our special yeast is the catalyst for fermentation, gobbling sugar and creating alcohol as it works. Some say that the Belgian monks who first brewed this style called it triple to denoted its high alcohol content. Still others believe triple’s origins lay in its triple fermentation; twice in the brewery and once in the bottle. Whatever the answer, ours is the Tripel threat.

Bottle, 9.0%. Quite caramelly aroma. Almost clear golden colour, very small white head. The flavour is nicely caramelly, good clean hop flavour. Distinct, but not harsh alcohol flavour.

22 fl oz bottle. Pours hazy orange with a diminished white head. Dry and mild wheaty malty aroma. Mild orange fruity to citric with a dry phenolic note. Bitter and slight yeasty finish with a distinct dry finish. Dry, spiced and mellow yeasty but somewhat rough and not with the expected mellewness and smoothness.

Nice frothy and long-lasting head with orange color for the body. Smell was thick and fruity. The taste however was nothing really exciting. Alcohol was present in the taste and so was some fruitiness. But overall it was unbalanced. The hops were in the wrong places and the beer was too astringent and had a kind of gross bitterness to it. Also it had an annoying metallic taste. Not friends with this beer.

Pours a light amber color with a frothy white head. Aroma of hops, sugar, and yeast. Flavor is relatively hoppy, and pretty sweet. It’s decent, but not as good as the rest of the Southern Tier selection.
