Flying Bike’s Summer 2024 Belgian Tripel Competition is coming to a Brewery near you!
Member-Owners will be submitting their best offerings of this delicious style of beer. A Belgian Tripel, BJCP style 26C, offers a complex flavor profile characterized by notes of ripe fruit like banana, pear, and apple, along with spicy phenols, hints of clove, and pepper. You might also detect a subtle sweetness, balanced by a dry finish and a noticeable alcohol warmth. The best examples are sneaky, not obvious. High carbonation and attenuation helps bring out the many flavors and to increase the perception of a dry finish.
