Piranha Tripel
Kumquat and mango carry this fruity tripel, joined by a hint of deep crimson chili, with malt and hops swimming underneath. Heavy and heavenly scented, with a bite, it comes in at 8.0% ABV. The brewery tells its story as a trip up the Amazon past red-bellied piranhas in search of the freshest fruit, and brews it in a restored Rotterdam fruit warehouse.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Piranha Tripel

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.
