Scheerse Tripel

Tap to rate

An aromatic Tripel: fruity, spicy and lightly bitter. It drinks fresh in summer and turns full and aromatic in winter. The brewery family likes to cook with its beer and works Tripel into its own beer cheese. Brewed in copper in Gramsbergen with hops straight from the hop farmer; best at about 8 °C.

Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Scheerse Tripel

◎ Appearance

Pale golden hue with excellent clarity and fine carbonation. A dense, creamy head forms and clings tenaciously to the glass, leaving distinct lacing on the walls as the beer is consumed. The bright, luminous color reflects the beer's gentle malt bill and noble hop character.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with ripe stone fruit and subtle citrus notes, followed by gentle spice—clove and white pepper from the yeast. Noble hop character emerges as a floral backdrop, with light herbal undertones and a whisper of fresh bread that grounds the aromatic profile without overwhelming.

◐ Taste

Fruity and spicy notes dominate the entry, carried on a medium-full, soft body that feels refreshing rather than heavy. The mid-palate balances subtle malt sweetness with restrained bitterness; at 25 IBU, the hops remain in support, providing definition without sharp edges. Finishes with a gentle dryness and a lingering spice that invites the next sip.

◑ Finish

Medium-length finish with fading spice and subtle yeast character. The aftertaste remains clean and lightly dry, without harshness, making the beer equally approachable on a warm summer evening or as a warming companion in cooler months.

Serve at 9–12°C

Serve at 10–13°C in a goblet. The yeast character and carbonation are the stars — cold would suppress both.

Goblet

The wide mouth and heavy base promote head formation and channel rich aromatics toward the nose. Traditional for Belgian strong ales.

Drink within 2 years. Some complexity develops with age but the yeast character is best relatively fresh.
