A Note on This Beer
It may have taken Belgian brewers hundreds of years to craft the Tripel, but it only took Allagash Brewing Company 20 years of brewing experience to perfect the #4 Belgian Tripel in the world on RateBeer.
Allagash’s Tripel Ale makes America proud -- it’s ranked alongside Belgium’s own Brasserie Dupont and Brouwerij Bosteels, capturing the classic Belgian Tripel flavors of passionfruit, honey, and biscuit. We knew we had to grab a stash of the beer that solidified Allagash’s presence as Belgian masters, winning them GABF Gold .
Delicate aromas of passionfruit, citrus zest, and spice float from a light amber pour. A noble blend of Tettnang and Hallertau Hops deliver highlights of clove and pepper to a body of caramelized bananas and wheat crackers. This Tripel disguises its 9% ABV with honey-like smoothness sip after sip, ending with a crisp finish.
If you’re a Belgian fan who thinks you’ve tried all the great Tripels, you should not miss this one. The Tripel Ale is additional evidence as to why Allagash ranks among the most prestigious Belgian brewers in the world.
Ranked 99 overall and 100 for style on RateBeer; Ranked #8 Belgian Tripel in the World on BeerAdvocate
