Belgian Tripel

**adragster7104** · March 15th, 2009, 07:33 PM

Brewed it yesterday....Everthing went really smooth. My second all grain batch. b**** is taking a long time to get active in the fermenter though!! Might have pitched the yeast a little cool.

I think I'm going to turn right around and brew another one in 2 weeks. More than likely a stout

Well....bottled this b**** on Wed. First taste test will be on 4/22

Taste pretty good without another 4 weeks of settling and no carbonation

Well....I just couldn't wait another two weeks and popped one open tonight

This stuff tastes great!!! I can't wait to try this again in a couple weeks after some more conditioning

Didn't take any pics of this brew.....I have posted a couple pictures of my mash tun and maybe of bottling in another thread though. I'll try to snap a few pics next time

Tasted this one on Thursday too.

The smell is spot on with a typical Belgian Tripel. The taste is very good.......but I still have a couple bugs I need to work out.

It's slightly dry tasting.
Also it has a slight aftertaste that is kinda bugging me. Its slightly "earthy" Kinda like there is suspended yeast still....but I dunno

It is still very good though.

This is one I will definitely brew again to make it perfect
