Belgian Tripel All Grain Kit

Belgian Tripel All Grain Kit
O.G: 1073 / Ready: 3 months


Charlie Papazian once called Belgium "the Disneyland of beers." Whatever you do, Charlie, keep the Tripel away from Mickey. This beer is very high in gravity, alcohol, and body, and really needs some aging before it hits its peak. Unlike many beers of similar gravity, Tripel is quite light in color, resembling a very light-amber pale ale.
