This alcohol-free interpretation of a classic Belgian Tripel maintains the signature trio of barley, oats, and wheat, delivering a sensory experience remarkably close to its storied predecessor. The pour reveals a bright gold body capped by a persistent, creamy foam. On the nose, delicate floral notes mingle with the bready essence of the three-grain bill, accented by whispers of citrus and traditional spices. The palate is characterized by a velvety texture—a hallmark of the added oats—offering a balanced sweetness of malt and honeyed grain. Refreshing and light, it concludes with a clean, spicy finish without any alcohol weight.

Appearance. Deep gold to light bronze (6-9 SRM) with brilliant clarity. Boasts a dense, creamy white head with excellent retention and intricate lacing.

Aroma. Moderate intensity featuring a grainy-sweet malt profile with distinct notes of wheat and oats. Estery fruitiness suggests lemon zest and ripe pear, complemented by spicy phenols like clove and a faint floral hop presence.

Taste. Initial impression of bready malt sweetness and honey. The grain character of barley, wheat, and oats provides a complex foundation. Very low hop bitterness supports a fruity profile of citrus and light spice. Finishes clean and slightly sweet with a lingering hint of peppery spice and grain.

Mouthfeel. Medium-light body, surprisingly smooth and velvety due to the oat content. Carbonation is high and effervescent. Complete absence of alcohol warmth; very refreshing.
