New Belgium Trippel
What the brewers say
“High note of sweet citrus before delivering a pleasantly dry finish with a warm, strong boozy bite.”
What our panel thought
“Big fruity esters in the aroma, light citrus and banana, bubblegum. Low medium bitterness that interplays with the fruitiness. Spicy, yeast-driven flavor. Slightly creamy mouthfeel. Medium to medium-dry finish. Easy to drink.”
What our editors thought
“Peppery pear and plantain on the nose, the phenolic edge squarely balancing the lighter fruit notes. The sip leans ever so slightly sweeter, balancing the heftier ethanol note as the sparkling punchy phenolic bitterness appears.”
