Italian Style Tripel
Aged in Marsala barrels [Sicily] for four months
Refermented in bottles, Matured in bottles for over 6 months
Brewing process:
After the primary fermentation in stainless, the beer was transferred to Marsala barrels where it aged for 18 weeks. Then transferred to a steel tank for a month to decant and refine the flavors. Refermentation in bottle and maturation in bottle for 6 months before release.
Tasting notes:
In the glass the beer is a beautiful deep gold and clear (if poured with care the sediment remains in bottle) topped with an abundant, compact and persistent head. The aroma is full, elegant and strong. The wine, spirits, and marsala notes are evident but the overall aroma is still within the realm of beer, with honeyed notes from malt very present along with a point of alcohol.
At first the beer is very soft of the palate, sweet with a big body and again a mark of boozy heat. The finish is dry, aromatic, complex and unexpectedly balsamic; even a bitter touch develops, making it quite unique.
A beer with great depth, to drink slowly or to pair with a strong flavored cheese, perhaps a blue goat cheese.
