Belgian Tripel 8.4 º 35 IBU

Sacrilège

Sacrilège Torpeur presents as a sophisticated Belgian Tripel, enhanced by the floral addition of local honey. The sensory experience begins with an effervescent bouquet of spicy, peppery phenols and bright citrus esters, reminiscent of orange peel and lemon. Underneath, a clean Pilsner malt base provides a soft, grainy foundation that seamlessly integrates the honey’s delicate floral nuances without adding cloying sweetness. The palate reflects these aromatics, delivering a firm bitterness and a remarkably dry, crisp finish that belies its substantial alcohol content. Highly carbonated and elegantly structured, it offers a harmonious balance between yeast-driven spice, subtle fruit, and a lingering, well-integrated warmth.

Appearance. Deep yellow to gold in color with brilliant clarity. Pours with a long-lasting, creamy, rocky white head that leaves significant lacing on the glass as it recedes.

Aroma. High intensity with a complex bouquet of peppery phenols and citrusy esters like orange and lemon. Low floral and spicy hop notes. A soft, grainy-sweet Pilsner malt character is complemented by a distinct, delicate floral honey impression. Alcohol is soft and spicy rather than solventy.

Taste. Initial impression of crisp grain and spicy yeast. Features moderate peppery phenols and citrus fruit flavors. Low floral hop flavor. Medium-high bitterness leads into a very dry, clean finish. The local honey adds a subtle floral complexity to the profile without adding residual sugar. Aftertaste is lingering with spicy yeast character.

Mouthfeel. Medium-light body, appearing lighter than the gravity suggests. High carbonation provides a lively, effervescent mouthfeel. Noticeable but smooth alcohol warmth that is well-integrated and never harsh.
