Brugge Tripel (8.7% ABV)

To cut to the chase, this is a really rather non-descript beer. It has the bare bones of a Tripel's characteristics, but contributes nothing of its own to the style.

Really, there's little in the glass in terms of outstanding aromas and tastes that merits commenting upon. I'd be making it up for the purposes of having something to write about if I claimed otherwise.

I drank this at the cold end of the Tripel tasting temperature profile, around 6 degrees Celsius probably. I left it to warm a little, but it still failed to develop anything resembling a personality. Unimpressed.
