Die Mutter aller Tripel, erstmals 1934 gebraut, ist dieses hochgeschätzte, authentische Trappistenbier, das im Laufe der Jahre viele Nachahmer inspiriert hat und nach wie vor eines der besten Exemplare ist, die es gibt.
The 1934 recipe still holds up—this is the tripel I measure every other one against, and the yeast character alone sets it apart from the imitators. Pours a hazy gold with a rocky head that lingers, exactly what you want from a classic.
You can tell it’s a genuine Trappist brew from the first pour — that thick, creamy head and the way the carbonation dances on the tongue. The 9.5% alcohol is hidden so well behind the spice and fruit that I almost forgot I was drinking something that strong. This is the benchmark every other tripel
The bottle conditioning gives it such a lively, creamy head that lingers right down to the last sip. It's been my go-to for years precisely because the balance is spot on—no other tripel has ever made me slow down like this one does.
