St. Vrain Tripel/$10.99, 750 ml bottle.
A river runs past it. Left Hand Brewing pays homage to its neighbor, “the mighty St. Vrain River,” with the latest in its limited-edition beer series, St. Vrain Tripel.
Usually the strongest beer the brewer makes, this tripel ale lives up to that billing with 9 percent alcohol (by volume) that comes off as pleasantly inoffensive. It’s an unfiltered flood of flavors, sweetness from malt and a spicy aroma.
St. Vrain Tripel is available in Colorado, Arizona, Florida, Indiana, Illinois, Ohio, Massachusetts, Minnesota, North Carolina, Tennessee, Texas and Pennsylvania.
