There are hundreds of Trappist Monasteries in the world, many of them make fruitcake. This beer is not made by Monks nor does it resemble fruitcake. Furthermore, Truckee has no Trappist Monastery and that, my friend, is why we at FiftyFifty bring you Trifecta. This is one of FiftyFifty's seasonal ales, and is a high alcohol Belgian style beer. Brewed with inspiration from Belgian Trappist Ales, Trifecta also includes locally grown Purple Sage Honey. With a complex spiciness tempered by the sweeter notes from the sage honey, flavors of spicy sage, alcohol, and mild malt sweetness are apparent, and sage and clove like aromas predominate.

ok. not quite what i expected...the honey is different (but good) and the yeasty notes reminded me of a dubble. maybe this one's a 2 1/2 instead of a tripple. pretty good, but nothing spectacular. not worth the crappy service to visit, though. 5-10...trifecta in the bottle must be different. don't taste any honey and 9.99 for it was way overpriced as it was the weakest (and most expensive) belgian of the night.

I've been trying to get up to this brewpub for awhile now, but seem to keep missing my target. Thankfully, one of the regulars to our last tasting brought in a bottle of this (cool! they are bottling now). I know it takes awhile for a brewer to get dialed in, so this might be something that after awhile will get better the more it's brewer. Right now, it's just okay. The beer is the color of light orange, almost yellowish in color with a medium-sized white cap. Aroma is definitely sweet, honeyish in fact. A touch of spices in the nose with some banana showing up. Average mouthfeel, nothing overcarbonated thankfully but a on the watery side of things. Flavor profile of a lemony citrus angle, some yeast, and a touch of spice. Rather underwhelming in some ways, but intruging because you hope that it will get better.

Tasted at the May Northern California Beer Tasting. This tripel pours a light orange gold color from a 22oz bottle. Medium sized white foamy head. The aroma is sweet, fruity and yeasty, with a touch of honey. A medium bodied tripel. The malts are fruity and sweet, with a lot of yeastiness, and a very pronounced banana and clove aspect. Nice mix of spices. Lively carbonation. Very drinkable. Mouthfeel is full. Finish is clean and crisp. Aftertaste is slightly sweet.
