Notes

Belgian Trappist Triple infused with old world spices to match the flavors pronounced by the Abby yeast. A little less spicy and earthy hops than a typical Belgian Triple. Delicate complex floral aromas of passion fruit, grapefruit, pineapple, gooseberry, lemongrass, and white wine. Medium-light malty character and big ABV.

Freshly grind peppercorns, allspice, and coriander during the last ten minutes of mash downtime.

Candi sugar is added 30 minutes into the boil. Add to the hop spider to reduce the risk of burning sugar on the bottom of the boil kettle.

Once primary fermentation is complete, dissolve 4oz of table sugar into 8oz of warm distilled bottled water and pitch the mixture into a sterile container (a bucket is fine). Rack the beer into the container with the priming sugar and bottle into 16oz fliptop bottles. Alternatively use fizz drops in each 16oz bottle, skip the process of making priming sugar syrup, and rack directly into bottles. Keep dark and ferment at 66 degrees for 18 days.

Bottle condition in darkness at cellar temperature 53-55f for 6-8 weeks.
