Wieze
Fine bitterness, lightly spiced, with citrus notes. This golden blond tripel is clear to slightly cloudy from bottle refermentation, top-fermented and 8.5% ABV. Its makers want a beer with guts rather than bells and whistles: a surprising tripel that stays highly drinkable.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Wieze
Serve at 10–13°C in a goblet. The yeast character and carbonation are the stars — cold would suppress both.
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.
