Size: 25.4oz

Wine Enthusiast: 94

"This strong golden ale is marked by passion fruit and herbal notes in the aroma, with suggestions of banana and honey in the complex palate. The Tripel has a remarkably long and smooth finish." —brewer

"Known for producing superb Belgian-style beers, it's no surprise that Allagash's Tripel Reserve is as good as it is. A hazy golden-yellow color in the glass with a billowy white head that shows good retention. Quite intense scents of candy sugar (Belgian brewing sugar), soft green apple, pepper and sweet spice esters typical of Belgian yeast start off on the nose and then transition to the mouth alongside additional flavors of sweet pithy citrus and raw dough. The hops appear on the midpalate and linger through the dry finish, lifting any perceived sugary sweetness. Warming and full but surprisingly mouthwatering." —Lauren Buzzeo, Wine Enthusiast Magazine


"Appearance: Tarnished gold in colour with a rich and dense white lace, almost looks like frothed milk on top.

"Smell: Exotic fruit, herbal and medicinal all make for a sweet aroma.

"Taste: Light to medium in body with a sweet candy sugar malt flavour. This is soon cut by herbal, grain, and phenolic flavour. Hop bitterness is complacent and is only in the background. Lots of spicy alcohol with hints of celery leaves and pine. Earthy yeast with its raw exotic fruity character laces the palate with more complexity. The fruity flavour lingers with a touch of grain and a heavy hand of warming alcohol ties up the finish.

"Notes: Another stellar brew from Allagash. Top shelf here, perfect example of the style. Rich in intricacies and incredibly drinkable. One of the greatest American Beers brewed in the Belgian style." —Jason Alström, BeerAdvocate

Huyghe Delirium Tremens Size: 25.4oz

13929
"Pale blond in color, the fine and regular effervescence ensures a fine and stable head. Slightly malty scent, a nice touch of alcohol, spicy. On the palate, the heat of the alcohol ignites and warms the tongue and palate. The taste is characterized by its roundness. The aftertaste is strong, long-lasting, and bitter-dry." —brewer

Saison Dupont Vieille Provision Farmhouse Ale Size: 25.4oz

25934
"The Saison Dupont is a top fermentation beer with refermentation in the bottle. Since 1844, this beer has been brewed in our farm-brewery, during the winter time. Then this beer became a second refermentation in the barrel. During the next summer, this very thirst-quenching beer was served to the 'saisoniers' which were working on the fields. Surely therefore, our Saison Dupont is considered as 'the classic' among the Belgian season beers! Coppery blond, the finest aromas and a strong bitterness transform this beer into a thirst-quencher with no equal, just the way it was created. Our selection of yeasts is the perfect base for these typical aromas and ditto taste. A real refermentation in the bottle, which will continue for a long time in your cellar, result into this complex and particular aromatic beer." —brewer

Chimay Premiere (Red) Size: 25.4oz

00063
"The Chimay Red Cap, or 'Première', in 750 ml bottles, is the oldest of the Chimays. This Trappist beer possesses a beautiful coppery colour that makes it particularly attractive. Topped with a creamy head, it gives off a slight fruity apricot smell from the fermentation. The aroma felt in the mouth is a balance confirming the fruit nuances revealed to the sense of smell. This traditional Belgian beer is best savoured at cellar temperature (50 - 54 °F)." —brewer

Duvel Golden Ale Size: 25.4oz

00585
"A Duvel is still seen as the reference among more full-bodied ales. Its bouquet is lively and tickles the nose with an element of citrus which even tends towards grapefruit thanks to the use of only the highest-quality hop varieties. This is also reflected in the flavour, which is beautifully balanced with a hint of spiciness. Thanks to its high CO2 content, this beer has a wonderful roundness in the mouth. A Duvel is both the perfect thirst quencher and the ideal aperitif." —brewer
