Brewers Description of this Summer Belgian Tripel:
“When you try this beer you’re in for a unique treat. The special effervescence and creaminess are immediately apparent when pouring. The pilsner malts combined with the Belgian yeast strains yield a remarkable and complex flavor- perhaps you’ll note subtle hints of banana. The flavor is nicely balanced and the finish moderate to dry, begging for the next sip.”
After pouring, Weyerbacher’s Merry Monks’ exposes a burnt orange facade and restless head. The hearty aroma consists of multiple harmonious scents, including citrus, banana, bubble gum, pepper, apple, and various spices. A smooth sweet pull introduces many of the same flavors to the palate as the nose detected. As each sip develops the flavors expand leading to a back that is a little tart with a touch of alcohol.
Merry Monks’ Summer Belgian Tripel is a spiced medium bodied beer which is not ideal for the hot daytime. However, as evening approaches, present this beer as a delicacy. It is fun to drink.
Merry Monks’ Belgian Style Golden Ale is available in standard 12 oz bottles or 25 oz cork-and-cage champagne bottles.
