Belgian Tripel Comparison: Old World vs. New World

[@bartdesmet2181]

Message from Belgium. Don't pour it like that.

Message from France. Pour it like that. It pisses off our beloved Belgian neighbours. Allez la Kro !! 😂

Me (Belgian guy) wil kick you in the face if you pour my tripple like that haha

[@IfearfigmentI]

Great video and comparison of 2 similar but totally different beer styles. As a Belgian though, I almost screamed at those Westmalle pours. Belgians take care when pouring their beer. You start at a decent angle and pour slowly, finishing with the glass almost straight up. The beer is supposed to go in your glass in 1 pour. In this way you get a strong head that lasts long but doesn't fill 3/4 of your glass.

[@Fabianwew]

I do it that way when I'm having one or two nice beers, but I get stuffed with co2 if I don't pour lagers or pilsners hard.

[@WingHouseCup]

Thank you sir. I live in the states and absolutely love and respect Belgian styles. Those pours...I have no words.😅

[@philiproseel3506]

Belgian here, as well. I didn’t expect much going in, wasn’t disappointed 😂

Great video! As a craft beer fan, and a tripel lover, sheer love. Thanks, guys.

Love this type of content from you all.

[@davidg8875]

Cool Video-- love how you guys compared tripels, and have had 3 of these 4 beers-- only the Allagash Tripel I have yet to try. Westmalle is so smooth and well blended, NB Trippel has a lighter feel but still very good, and De Dolle Dulle Teve is one of the very best tasting tripels I have had..... Keep up the good work!

[@Trent1899]

I really enjoyed this type of video. Would love to see more like this! Keep up the great work!

True. If you poor it like that in Belgium you might get punched in the face! lol. And it's true what they said about the glasses. It's considered proper 'etiquette' to serve a beer in the right glass, logo facing the customer.

I brew several Triples a year we love them at dinner time; goes great with a steak or roasted chicken.

[@metalmichew2]

I never thought about mixing a tripel with orange juice, but i do gotta say it might make sense! I tasted this one dutch tripel some time ago and it tasted like orange for some reason, it was amazing!

[@georgecolby7488]

So, extra points for showcasing Allagash (I'm from Maine) and I totally got the Magic: the Gathering joke. Loved it.

[@garfieldt]

Tripels are the best. Westmalle is divine.

[@willdutcher7857]

I love this. It's like getting drunk with my friends.

[@LarsDragonbeard]

Did a quick up etymology search for the fellow nerds (and I'm Belgian, so I can use native language resources). Tripel was first used in 1913 to refer to a high-alcohol trappist style beer. Westmalle started using the term commercially in 1956 for its tripel. So interbellum is correct if you average them, but entirely wrong for either :D

[@GM-yq9du]

Respect.. drinking 4 triples realtime and still making some sense. 😁

[@jensnielsen7734]

What's happening with the vids guys been awhile.

[@mattb4699]

I used to buy the New Belgium when I lived by the river in Austin, pour 2 into a big gulp and walk the boardwalk. That shit gets you hammered.

[@buggyridge]

My home SMaSH brews with Maris Otter liquid malt extract has a huge head like that. Using Pilsner liquid malt instead yields considerably less head. Same hops.

[@risolisss]

Love your videos guys. My next Brew Will be yours triple recipe. Big hugs from Brazil! Cheers

[@garydahler6513]

Could listen to Ross ramble on with shit for ever. Could read the phonebook and I would be interested. Always happy when he is on

[@blackbogbrewing3186]

Please do a video where you compare and contrast various ingredients and how they affect your beer, like hops, malts, yeasts used on the exact same recipe which impart different flavors. Particularly interested in different malt suppliers such as comparing a normal beer recipe using Dingemans vs Castle or Weyermann vs Avangard or Bestmalz.

[@africantwin173]

Those Belgium's trippel beers cost around 2 usd per bottle in the Netherlands. When can we see the shooting beer vids. Hi. 👍🏻.

[@robsteries]

The quantity of foam depends on the beer. Most Belgian beers have about two fingers of foam. But Duvel, for example, has more than two fingers of foam.

Pretty sure Czechs pour there pilsner like that, not Belgians.

[@AlexRawlings]

Dulle Teve is an awesome tripel. Just please learn a proper pour. That all foam thing you did is not authentic. Start at 45 degrees and straighten up at the end. An inch of foam is fine.

[@garfieldt]

13:10 That's an abysmal belgian pour 😂😂. He's not smiling, he's crying 😭 Pro tip, tilt your glass 45° at the start, then slowly straighten it. Pour it in one go. You'll end up with about an inch of foam. Glad you enjoyed the tripels, cheers!

So I heard you say New Belgium was your brewery? I like your new Honey, Orange Tripel. And at this very moment I'm finishing up my third Voodoo Ranger IPA the %9 version. Just wanted to throw that out in the internet atmosphere. Triples are my favorite to brew at home and drink. I like to add pepper corn and orange peels to my attempts. Usually I'll use Belgian Pilsner grains but have used 2-row. Anyway I enjoy your beers man.

[@trijezdci4588]

The Bavarian so called "Reinheitsgebot" had one and only one reason: Keeping the price of bread low by forbidding the use of wheat for beer brewing. Barley is not suitable for bread making because unlike wheat, it lacks gluten forming proteins and unlike rye it also lacks gel forming fibres. High bread prices had been the primary cause of revolts since antiquity and smart rulers tried to prevent such revolts by keeping the prices of bread low or by giving out free grain or bread as in the Roman empire. The Bavarian King decided to use a form of market regulation instead and decreed that wheat and rye could only be used for baking and brewers had to use barley so they would not compete with bakers for the grain. That is all the so called Reinheitsgebot was intended for and it worked. The name "Reinheitsgebot" (purity decree) was only invented centuries later when Bavaria was negiotiating its membership in the new German Empire under a Prussian emperor. At that point Bavarian breweries did not want the competition from breweries in the rest of the German Empire and they argued that it was about quality but that was nothing but spin. And if the so called Reinheitsgebot was actually applied in Bavaria, then there would be no Bavarian Weizen-beer, because Weizen means wheat and thus Weizenbier is wheat beer, which violates the so called Reinheitsgebot. The so called Reinheitsgebot is a propaganda lie.

[@tomazrutar3516]

You are pouring it wrong ( not even rotating the last inch or 3cm at the end of the bottle ) and the Westmalle glass is not tulip shaped at all like Omer.Than I think Omer blonde is better to start drinking 8% alcohol, Westmalle trippel is a bit heavy on the alcohol taste. I know Westveteler is to expensive but you should try a 8 year old number 12.

I'm a bit baffled Emmet has never had a triple as it's probably the most iconic style, though I guess it may not be the case over there in the US as it is here in Europe. Hot take though: triples are overrated.

Drinkin' triples and blacking out and then claiming he never drank triples is probably more accurately what has happened here...
