The brewery: New Belgium Brewing Company, Fort Collins, Colorado
Description (from the website): "This tripel is crafted with the very best ingredients. We source wild honey from the African Bronze Honey Company, a member of the Fair Trade Federation and a certified B-Corp. Old Town Spice Shop—a local Fort Collins favorite—also helps us grind fresh Seville orange peels the day before we brew. The result of this collaboration? A citrusy sweet Belgian-style beer that never fails to delight."
Would I buy it again? I love doppelbocks, but I don't think any beer masters the art of high ABV and sheer drinkability quite like a tripel. And this is no exception. At 10%, it's twice as potent as your standard beer, but it's incredibly pleasant to drink. It's got a nice honey flavor mixed with a bit of citrus, which hides the alcohol very well. This isn't the first one of these I've had, so the answer is yes, I would buy it again.
