Description
It started as a hobby. In 2012, four brewery friends decided to join their tasty tripel in the Brouwland Beer Competition. From a selection of more than 90 beers, our Bryggja was voted the best hobby beer in Belgium by a professional jury. The start of a great adventure! We took this opportunity with both hands and chose a name, bottle, a suitable design for our label ... With the Bruges Beer Festival 2013, our beer was launched. We brewed externally and the sales went beyond all expectations. The following year our 2nd beer "Amuse" came on the market. A spicy beer that is very suitable as an aperitif beer. At the end of 2014, the decision was made to fully go ahead and start our own brewery. We found a building in Moerkerke and in the spring of 2015 the brewing installation was installed. We only work with Belgian hops and can therefore also use the official logo. Our beer is a traditional product, with us no extracts, no flavor or foam enhancers. We like to keep it pure nature.

Triple-B stands for Brugge, Bryggja & Bierboom. One of the guys who commissioned this beer, described it in an interview as a bitter beer. Thanks! 330 ml. bottle sampled @ BBF 2014. Hazy orange, little white head. Nose is sweet honey, malt, caramel, sugar,… Taste is metallic, dusty old cereal, agave, something, rotting bitter aftertaste, plenty of malt,… Body is a touch sticky,… Not really what an IPA should be & not really a very enjoyable beer in my opinion. I know that they were probably aiming for a mainstream audience but this takes it too far.

Clear copper orange beer, small aery off-white head, unstable, non adhesive. Aroma: very sweet, sugary, bit spicy. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: chemical bitterness, soapy, little fruity, very bitter. Aftertaste: dry, chemical bitterness, medicinal, little fruity, bit resinous. More like a bitter tripel than an ipa...

Bottle @ Vinterslaget på Østersøen, Sønderborg. Pours clear golden with airy but stable white head. Clear aroma of fruit, flowers and hops, with some estery notes. Bitter, hoppy flavour, with sweetish notes of fruit and malt and some floral touches. Bitter, rough and citric aftertaste. Warming alcohold presence. Okay but not revolutionary.

Bottle, 8.5%. Citric aroma, hay. Clear golden colour. Small chalk white head. The flavour is citric and sweetish, fruity with a little clove or vanilla. Not so spicy, but flavourful enough. Decent creamy mouthfeel.

Dumpy 33cl bottle: BBD 07/15, poured into a Westvleteren chalice at home on 1st Jan 15. Misty golden body with a white topping. Yeasty and hoppy feel to the nose and taste with a semi-sweet undertone. Highly carbonated palate almost fizzy in fact. Hides the alcohol nicely within the flavours, a decent brew and worth finding.
