Brouwerij De Brabandere

Petrus Tripel presents as a vibrant Belgian Tripel, radiating a golden glow with a notable effervescence from bottle re-fermentation. The sensory journey begins with an intense, perfumed bouquet of orange zest and ripe pear, bolstered by a complex blend of three European aromatic hops. Dry-hopping introduces a fresh, floral layer that complements the classic spicy, peppery phenols. On the palate, a soft, honeyed malt base supports flavors of citrus and stone fruit, leading to a firm bitterness and a characteristically dry finish. While a subtle hint of caramel adds depth, the finish remains crisp, accented by a deceptive yet warming alcohol presence.

Appearance. Deep yellow to pale gold (6 SRM); hazy appearance with a dense, creamy, and long-lasting white head that leaves significant lacing on the glass.

Aroma. High intensity; prominent esters of pear and orange zest coupled with spicy, peppery yeast phenols. A light, honey-like malt sweetness is balanced by floral and herbal hop notes from the European aromatic hops.

Taste. Complex fusion of citrusy esters and spicy phenols over a clean, slightly grainy malt foundation with faint caramel undertones. Medium-high bitterness emerges mid-palate, transitioning into a crisp, very dry finish with a lingering peppery aftertaste and a touch of woodiness.

Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with very high, effervescent carbonation that provides a lively mouthfeel. Noticeable but well-integrated alcohol warmth enhances the dry finish without being harsh.
