Belgian Tripel 9.2 º 36 IBU

Clube do Malte

This Belgian Tripel presents a vibrant sensory profile that balances traditional monastic complexity with an elevated hop presence. A bouquet of peppery phenols and citrusy esters harmonizes with herbal and spicy hop notes, driven by its unique 'Happy Hoppy' character. Despite the substantial 9.2% ABV, the beer remains approachable, offering a soft grainy-sweet malt foundation and a deceptive dryness. Nuances of honey-like malt provide a brief sweetness before a firm bitterness of nearly 36 IBUs takes over, leading to a lingering, crisp finish. Effervescent and aromatic, it delivers a refined yet assertive interpretation of the style.

Appearance. Deep gold to pale amber (approx. 6 SRM) with brilliant clarity and high effervescence. Features a thick, rocky, long-lasting white head that leaves significant lacing on the glass as it recedes.

Aroma. High intensity bouquet featuring a seamless blend of spicy, peppery phenols and fruity esters reminiscent of orange peel and lemon. A low grainy-sweet malt character is complemented by distinctively herbal and citrusy hop notes.

Taste. Initial impressions of soft, bready malt and light honey sweetness quickly transition to a dominant spicy yeast character. The mid-palate reveals moderate bitterness (35.9 IBU) and citrusy hop flavors, balancing the malt. Finishes very dry and clean with a lingering peppery and herbal aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with very high carbonation, creating an effervescent, prickly sensation on the tongue. Noticeable but well-integrated alcohol warmth is present, avoiding any harshness despite the high gravity.
