Duchesse Anne Triple

Duchesse Anne Triple arrives with a tight, persistent head and a pale gold clarity. There's immediate white pepper and subtle clove on the nose, but it doesn't overpower—instead you get this delicate floral thing underneath, almost like dried chamomile. The palate is crisp and actually quite dry for a tripel; the alcohol warmth exists but doesn't announce itself, and the finish is clean enough that you want another sip right away. This is the kind of tripel that works on a weeknight when you want sophistication without heaviness.

Farmhouse Tripel

Farmhouse Tripel pours a shade darker and feels immediately fuller in hand. The nose is spicier—more aggressive cinnamon, a hint of banana from the yeast work, and some underlying honey sweetness that Duchesse Anne keeps quieter. On the tongue, there's genuine weight; the alcohol warms your chest noticeably, and the finish has this slightly sticky sweetness that lingers. It's a beer that asks you to slow down and sit with it, less 'another round' energy and more 'this is my evening.'
