Commercial Description:
Don't let Tripel's light color and delicate aroma fool you, this is one serious beer brewed with maximum effort. First, we introduce freshest barley to crystal filtered water. Second, we add the best hops shipped directly for Europe. Third, our special yeast is the catalyst for fermentation, gobbling sugar and creating alcohol as it works. Some say that the Belgian monks who first brewed this style called it triple to denoted its high alcohol content. Still others believe triple's origins lay in its triple fermentation; twice in the brewery and once in the bottle. Whatever the answer, ours is the Tripel threat.

[Bottle @ Odense Tasting, 14th February 2009, remembered for Carsten BeerMouths fantastic 3 meals highend gastronomy.] Although it’s long time I’ve tasted these brewdrops I remember it as one we had high expects to, but it was not especially good. Need some else than all this dryness!

hazy golden with a lasting white head. Aroma of caramel, fruity hops and oranges. Dry and hoppy flavour with a slighly yeasty note. Distinctly American in character...

Okay miss labeled for sure. Was closer to a pils then a tripel. Poured cloudy amer color almost no head or lacing, right there should have told me something. Aroma was grass and herbal tea. Flavor was grassy and earthy something type of spice in there as well. Not a good one even if it was a pils, but for a tripel was a train wreck.

aroma of some yeast esters, minimal hops and a touch fo fusely alcohol. apperance is clear blonde. flavor is of decent fruits derived from the yeast and devoid of alcohol or even hops, very very smooth with minimal bitterness. not the greatest tripel ive attempted or even the best belgian style beer, but still a great american big beer which is all i expect from ST.

Very nice smell and a pretty amber pour. Cleaqr with a foamy head. Something in the taste seemed a little off but I couldn’t put my finger on it. A bit thin with a metallic after taste.

Bottle, 9.0%. Quite caramelly aroma. Almost clear golden colour, very small white head. The flavour is nicely caramelly, good clean hop flavour. Distinct, but not harsh alcohol flavour.
