Oddity #6 Tripelette Saison – doesn’t make a huge amount of sense but we are going for a Belgian Tripel style but on a lower target abv of 5.6%. To quote Peter Jackson, the Beer Hunter, “Tripel. Dutch-language term usually applied to the strongest beer of the house, customarily top-fermenting often pale in colour, occasionally spiced with coriander. The most famous is made in Westmalle, Belgium.” Hence ours is a little Tripel, a Tripelette!

Keg @ Birmingham Beer Bash 2015. Pours hazy amber with big foamy head. Odd creamy yeast in the taste with a strange citrus presence.

Tap at the Birmingham Beer Bash, 2015. Poured a hazy medium amber with a frothy white head and plenty of broken lace. The aroma is mineral acid citrus. The flavour is light sour, yeasty with a smooth mineral light citrus, light spice palate.
