Force Majeure - Tripel Hop
Force Majeure is a brewery founded by a sportsman who still loves the taste of a good Belgian beer. Often these two passions don't go together but thanks to the entrepreneurship of Stijn Panis, it's still possible.
In addition to the Traditional Blonde, Force Majeure also makes this Tripel hop. The sweetness of a Tripel comes out clearly here along with the smell of banana candy and strawberry gum, this sounds intense but it suits this beer. The taste is also nicely bitter as you might know from an orange peel.
The spiciness in the taste pairs nicely with foods such as grilled pork tenderloin wrapped with bacon and mushroom cream sauce. That spicy touch combined with alcoholic aromas in a tripel that Force Majeure has applied very relatable here invites you to take another sip but is also too intense to drink through, the same thing happens to you with this Tripel Hop.
Low-alcohol beer
Cheers
