Bubble, bubble, toil and trouble... After waiting many months and exhausting the last threads of patience in our bodies, we are proud to officially unveil our newest arrival: "Gippel Tripel." This is certainly no typical Belgian-style triple ale. We go bold or go sober, so we souped this bad boy up... We tricked it out with two pounds of clover honey, bitter orange peel, sweet orange peel, lemon peel, coriander and then we dry-hopped it with some spicy, aromatic Saaz hops. In the secondary fermentation stage, we added a generous amount of Champagne yeast to accentuate the citrus flavors and to give it a crisp, dry finish. It is a sure-fire winner and a potential Summertime "patio pounder."
