Belgo-American Triple
Marble Brewery

From the bomber into a plastic cup. Hotel life. This was released in 2014 and has a bottled on date of 2/17/2014.

Hazy golden peach liquid. Fizzy carbonation and a frothy pale white head. Reminds me of Jumex peach juice. 4.5

Brett is highly apparent, but in a funky, fruity, juicy way. Aroma makes me think of a fuzzy fruit like apricot. Really there's an abundance of fruit flavors ranging from pineapple and mango to peach all of which accompany a vinous yeast presence. I get down. 4.25

Again, Brett-dominant. Vinous and yeasty flavors present peach, pear, apple, and wine grapes. Some sweet maltiness is able to push its way through eventually to add some more dimension to the flavor. The finish is a lingering yeasty (Brett) flavor. I enjoy the taste but find that there's little here that could be considered a Tripel. 3.75

Have I mentioned yeast enough? This has a lot of Brett going on. Vinous and funky almost to a fault. I think it could be subtler. Still, there's a full-body and creaminess so at least it's not overcarbed. Plus, for 9%, this goes down pretty easily. 3.75

Glad to drink this finally after nearly two years. I wish Marble had continued bottling a couple brews for brew club members only, but it seems they've just got too much going on at the moment. As for this beer, it's enjoyable.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks to Rado for sharing this one at GRG1313's tasting.

Bottled 2/17/14.

Pours a hazy light yellow with a foamy off-white head that settles to a partial film on top of the beer. Small dots of lace form around the glass on the drink down. Smell is of malt, grain, tropical fruit, yeast, and Brett aromas. Taste is much the same with citrus zest, tropical fruit, and Brett flavors on the finish. There is a mild amount of Brett bitterness on the palate with each sip. This beer has a good level of carbonation with a crisp mouthfeel. Overall, this is a very good beer with a great combination of tropical fruit and Brett qualities all around.
