Sapient Tripel511 S. Kalamazoo Ave
Marshall, MI18C. Belgian Tripel Ale
Mildly fruity esters. Light caramel malts evident.
Spiciness with coriander undertones. Definite
alcohol aroma, but par with the tripel category.
Appearance: (3/3)
Light amber / golden color from
malts. Very good color with effervescence.
Lacing doesn't last as the beer moves south.
Head quickly fades, I wasn't even able to grab
my camera fast enough.
Flavor: (17/20)
Malty bite, with nice bittering hops and
crispness. The finish is dryish and sweet.
Very nice mix of malts and hops!

Mouthfeel: (4/5)
Nice body and depth; creamy. Nice bite on
the back of the tongue. Beautiful kick!
Warms with no ill effects.
Overall Impression: (8/10)
A very nice example of a tripel. I expect
no less from Dark Horse! Very clean and
dry finish. Absolutely no off flavors!
