Belgian Tripel 8.7 º 35 IBU

Brouwerij Palm

Brugge Tripel delivers a sophisticated sensory experience rooted in medieval tradition, centered on a proprietary 'gruut' spice blend. This Belgian Tripel showcases a complex aromatic profile where distinctive phenolic notes and subtle smoky hints merge with fruity esters. Intense kettle boiling provides a rich, caramelized malt sweetness that balances the firm, herbaceous bitterness of its aromatic hops. Visually stunning, it pours a brilliant gold with a dense, rocky white head that leaves intricate lacing. The palate is full and creamy, offering a harmonious interplay of honeyed malt and spicy botanicals, finishing with a warming, dry elegance.
