2024 Gold Medal Winner - NYS CBC Best Belgian Strong/Trappist Ale

Belgian-Style Golden Trippel brewed with our house Belgian yeast. The wonderful Belgian yeast esters give a superbly pleasant spice note that is balanced by a rich and crisp malt backbone.
The complex and multidimensional flavor profile of this beer will elevate your palate to new levels. We recommend you slowly savor this golden hued Trippel Ale on a chilly fall or winter day.
The sinister can label features a Trappist monk riding a horse at the track, which was hand-drawn by local artist, Madison of Violet Rose Art.

Reviewed from notes.
Can to chalice.
Appearance: semi-murky orange to auburn color with a two finger white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace.
Aroma: light banana, touch of coriander, light clove, some candied pomme-fruits, bready, and some Belgian yeasty tones
Flavor: semi-yeasty spicy to a light candied fruity sweet vibe; mild aftertaste of the pomme-fruits and Belgian yeast vibes
Texture: between light and medium bodied, between being a sipper and being sessionable; some of that Belgian back-of-the-throat grab does capture my tongue here as I somewhat expected and was hoping for too; mild finish of bready to spicy yeasty tones
Overall: to be honest, I think this was more of Belgian strong pale ale and not a true Belgian Tripel but I could be wrong as I believe this was good enough to come back to. There's something good here.

Quite deep and hazy golden and peach coloured body with a relatively thick, three centimetre tall off-white head that stays afloat nicely. Aroma of strong yeast and coriander seed with a bit of honey here and some bubblegum as well, but deep in alcohol, in the nose at least, as well. Medium to Full-bodied; Strong and rich wheat and yeast notes dominate with some tea flavours as well and a lot of pungent alcohol warmth coming from the yeast here with a light bready quality coupled with the robust curacao and coriander seed flavours towards the end. Aftertaste shows some pungency from the wheat and a light grassiness with the coriander seed and alcohol coming through at the end as well. Overall, a relatively fresh and crisp yeast-forward beer with a lot of curacao and coriander seed flavours, but the alcohol perhaps a bit stronger than it should for the content here, but the flavours are nice and robust, just nothing too special. I sampled this sixteen ounce, pint-sized can, purchased from The Beer Cave @ Bob's Sunoco in Callaway, Maryland on 110-May-2022 for US$3,63 sampled at my house here in Washington on 21-October-2022.
