RATING
97
Pouring a murky, muted orange hue, Long Strange Tripel wears a rocky, off-white head and boasts an elegant aroma: Orange blossom scents with bright lemon brushes and pepper spice draw deep into the nose. This beer’s high carbonation whisks orange and lemon down the tongue where peppery, doughy notes converge. As each swallow moves back, drying alcohol and perky carbonation clean the mouth. Ultraflavorful yet light and effervescent on the tongue, the brew leaves delicate spicy, fruity notes to play with the taste buds as the swallow recedes.
