Belgian Tripel 8.1 º 31 IBU

Slaapmutske Brouwerij

Slaapmutske Tripel presents a classic Belgian Tripel profile, characterized by its golden hue and high fermentation. Utilizing a base of Pilsen malt alongside toasted malts, it offers a soft, grainy-sweet foundation. The aroma is defined by fresh, spicy notes and fruity esters reminiscent of citrus and light clove, driven by a traditional Belgian yeast strain and two distinct aromatic hop varieties. The palate balances a medium-full body with a firm hop bitterness that carries into a lingering, malty finish. Bottle refermentation ensures an effervescent, delicate carbonation and a creamy, long-lasting head, masking its 8.1% alcohol with remarkable drinkability and a dry, spicy complexity.

Appearance. Deep gold to pale amber (approx. 6-7 SRM). Brilliant clarity with persistent effervescence. Massive, long-lasting, rocky white head that leaves dense Belgian lacing on the glass.

Aroma. Moderate to significant intensity featuring spicy, peppery phenols and fruity esters of orange and lemon. The malt character is light and grainy-sweet, showcasing the Pilsen malt with a very subtle toasted undertone. Hops are low and floral.

Taste. Initial soft malt sweetness followed by a complex interplay of spicy yeast phenols and citrusy esters. Pilsen malt provides a honey-like background. Medium to high bitterness from the aromatic hops provides a firm structure, leading to a dry finish with a lingering malty and pleasantly bitter aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Medium body that feels lighter due to very high carbonation. Effervescent and creamy texture from bottle refermentation. Alcohol provides a deceptive, smooth warmth that is well-integrated.
