Brewed By:
Corsendonk
Self-Defined Style:
Belgian Abbey Tripel Brewed with all natural ingredients, including 93% barley malts (Plaisant and Triumph) and 7% wheat, and Styrian Goldings, Hallertau Herzbrucker and Kent Challenger hops. Beer authority Michael Jackson describes Corsendonk® Abbey Pale Ale as "Dry, with a great deal of finesse. A deceptively potent ale in the golden, "Triple" strength style of Belgium's Trappist monks. It has a very big head indeed - pour it gently - and a very clean palate, beginning with a dry, lightly citric fruitiness, and finishing with a distinctive and delicate, perfumy, hop character. Very light and fluffy in texture, giving little hint of its strength. This beer has living yeast in the bottle, and will evolve with age, becoming softer and cleaner".
Best With:
A dry, sparkling beer that has the finesse of Brut Champagne, becoming drier as it matures. Enjoy it before, during and after meals, with fish, fowl, seafood and pasta. It's a savory complement to traditional Belgian moules & frites (mussels and fries), and full-flavored and spicy grilled foods. Best served at 50°F.

Dubbel is better than Tripel
