Loose bottle from WF. I haven't had a bonafide tripel in a while. I used to spend a lot of time in the Belgium aisle at my local bottle shop. I'm not sure how I relocated since then back to IPA country, but this is a welcome change of pace. Pour from a standard 11.2 oz bottle made a beautiful, luxurious head, excellent head retention with heavy lacing. Creamy with a little bit of maltiness to round out that Belgian spiciness. The complexity is too awesomeMYMINDISBREAKING. I should really spend more time on Belgian beers. I wish I had more words to describe this one. Bottom line is that it's just a great, enjoyable beer. It is 8%ABV, so this is a dangerous one. Maybe it's just nostalgia, but this one feels like a hit.s
- Appearance: Glowing dark gold; rich, luxurious head, great retention and lots of lacing.
- Smell: Spot on Belgian spice character
- Taste: Very agreeable spiciness, little bit of that yeasty taste, little bit of maltiness. No heat.
- Mouthfeel: Creamy with appropriate carbonation, very smooth.
- Drinkability and Overall: Loving this beer. At 8.0%ABV, it's dangerously drinkable.
