Curtius Triple

Tap to rate

The strongest of the Curtius core range. A golden Belgian tripel with expressive yeast character, fruity esters, and a warming dry finish. Bottle-conditioned like all Curtius beers, with complexity that develops over time.

◐ Taste

The palate enters dry and full-bodied, with the yeast-driven character evident from the first sip. Fruity and spiced notes build through the mid-palate, balanced by a gentle wheat-like grain foundation and moderate bitterness that remains restrained. The 9% ABV manifests as warming alcohol that amplifies the dryness without harshness.

A lengthy, dry finish with lingering fruity and spiced notes that evolve as the beer warms in the glass. The alcohol warmth persists pleasantly without overpowering, leaving the palate clean and inviting another sip.

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.
