Tripel 340

Tap to rate

Blond, intense and liqueur-like, with a ceremonial, monastic air. The brewery calls it a historic beer and writes that a brewery is, in some way, always a temple. It comes from the Murcia brewery that has brewed its own brand since 2009 and keeps a Tap Room Bar with 15 taps for its house beers. The brewery sells directly and through an online shop.

◐ Taste

Entry is smooth and full-bodied, with pronounced sweetness balanced by gentle spice and a liqueur-like warmth from the alcohol. The mid-palate displays honey, dried fruit, and soft bread malt character, building into a warming finish. Low bitterness (18 IBU) allows the sweet, fruity complexity to dominate without harshness.

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.
