West by Three Abbey Tripel ABV 10.7%

This beer has all of the hallmarks of Belgian Strong Ale, it is light bodied with notes of plum, apricot and citrus fruits.

Surprisingly refreshing for a high gravity strong ale, this monster comes across session-able but beware, at 10.7% it’s a strong one. In the words of Ice Cube “check yourself, before you wreck yourself” and enjoy this fantastic example of a Belgian style tripel ale responsibly.

If you have any left-over, it is perfectly age-able and will mature in your cellar, we recommend a minimum of 6 months before there is a noticeable change in flavour.

Serving Directions: Chill the bottle in the fridge. Once chilled, pour 2/3 of the bottle into a glass with a generous lemon slice. Swirl the bottle to wash all of the yeast into the remaining beer and then pour directly into the glass.

Beavertown Tempus Project Uptown Monk ABV 9.3%

Brewed in collaboration with Brouwerij Alvinne. The nose is complex with cloves and sweet candy like notes mixing with earthy, floral and wine like characteristics. The flavour is deep leading with classic triple flavours of sweet-malt, figs and a touch of honey. The finish is peppery with some fruit courtesy of the wine barrels. The are some funky notes hanging out in the background with a small gang of candied orange tones. The mouthfeel is round and warming.
