Little Brewing Breaking The Cardinal Rule IPA Tripel

TASTING NOTES

Breaking the Cardinal Rule IPA Tripel is a big, bold Belgian inspired IPA Tripel, hopped to the extreme with New World American IPA hop varieties, and fermented with a traditional Old World Belgian yeast strain. Hop aromas and flavours of pine, citrus and grapefruit melt harmoniously with the malty sweetness and yeast derived complexity of a classic Trappist Tripel.

Situated in  Port Macquarie, it has been quite a ride for The Little Brewing Company since they started out in 2007. These guys won a gold medal at their first professional beer competition and now have more than 100 medals from national and international competitions. They never compromise on ingredients and use plenty in each batch which is surely the key to their success. Hey, it’s good to be fussy!
