About This Beer

Pentuple is Hoppin’ Frog’s GABF gold-winning take on a Tripel. It’s got all the parts of a Tripel, but the Ohio crew focused on crafting it with a super-charged ABV for belly warming deliciousness! Even in their long line of barrel aged boozy brews, Pentuple stands alone as the strongest Belgian-style beer Hoppin’ Frog offers.

Tasting Notes

Each quaff is like a bite of brandy-baked spiced pie. A pleasant floral aroma careens into decadent flavors of dessert. The Belgian candi sugars swell up front, with rich notes of caramel candies and dark, robust clove spices. The finish lingers on the back of its massive ABV, with a belly-warming heat begging for another sip!

Tastes like soy sauce flavored soda. Not for me to be honest

Very sweet, enough to balance out whatever hops are in it. Super boozy, but you can barely tell by the taste. This tastes like a crisp barleywine. If I saw this at a bar, I'd definitely order it.

4.0

Quite mild for the abv, good Belgian although quite sweet, and a bit alcoholic in the aftertaste. For the rest, strong smell of figs, caramelized fruits, caramel, the taste is sweet, banana, cloves, wood, molasses, spices and toasted bread.

on the sweet side, but for a high ABV brew it was really drinkable and delicious.

sweet yet complex, enjoyed this one

I never give beers 5 stars. But I did for this because it’s THAT GOOD. Despite it being 15%, it’s smooth and the flavors burst with every sip. The fruity flavors aren’t overwhelming but blend with the hops so there’s no dryness or overly hoppy taste. if I could buy a case of this I would, it’s THAT GOOD

Great smooth bookings with a sweet balanced raisin and prune flavor. This is what a pentuple should be. This is a slow sipping beer

Not all that Belgian and way too sweet for one, but overall it’s pretty nicely done. Hides the ABV really well.

just as the label says… a super-charged trippel. light molasses and depth with more hop notes than typical for this type.

Light brown, semi-clear, not too much foam. Smells floral, a little like banana. Medium bodied feel, a bit syrupy. Tastes a bit sweet, a bit floral, and a bit fruity.
