Limited Release The Bruery / Tradewinds Belgian Tripel

October 4th:

The Bruery / Tradewinds Belgian Tripel limited release now on Tap for a quick reminder of Summer! Hurry and get some before it's gone! 

From the Bruery: 

Our Summer seasonal, Trade Winds Tripel is a Belgian-style Golden Ale with a Southeast Asian twist. Instead of using candi sugar (typical for such a beer), we use rice in the mash to lighten the body and increase the gravity, and spice with Thai Basil. The result is an aromatic, digestible and complex beer made for a lazy summer evening.

ABV: 8%, IBU: 25, SRM: 5, Release: Summer

Just in, in a limimited amount: De Proef Signature Les Deux Brasseurs Ale  at the Independent Bar Tampa. 

Les Deux Brassuers was a collaboration with Allagash Brewery of Portland Maine and De Proef Brouwerii in Belgium.

From Allagash Brewing: 

"Les Deux Brasseurs is a Golden Ale fermented with two strains of Brettanomyces. Our Brettanomyces, discovered and isolated at our location was flown in fresh for this special occasion. With Dirk's favorite strain of Brettanomyces, the beer was brewed using Pilsner Malt and a small amount of Torrified Wheat. The Golden Ale was then hopped with German Hallertau and fermented and aged for four months. In the course of the brew it was dry hopped with Czech Saaz."

The result is a beer of remarkable character with significant fruit tones, including; pear, apple and pineapple. This beer also produces the flavors of graham cracker, barnyard character and is rounded by an herbal spicy hop finish.
