Straffe Hendrik Tripel is a powerful beer with rich flavors of malt and hop that is brewed to the same original recipe in the same unique setting in the heart of the medieval Bruges – and with good reason.

Toasted orange in hue and with a spicy finish, it is among the most-versatile beers the world over, equally at home as a refreshing sip or a top-notch pairing. In recent years, beer critics have hailed it as the best tripel in the world.

Straffe Hendrik Tripel

Straffe Hendrik Tripel is one of the Tripels with the most character in our rich Belgian market of beers. The beer is strong and full-bodied. The tripel has an alcohol percentage of 9% and the refermentation in the bottle generates a long natural shelf life.

In 1981, Henri Maes and his daughter Véronique followed the demand of the mayor and created a strong blond beer for the inauguration of the statue of Sint-Arnoldus, the saint of all beer-brewers. However, the beer became so popular, that the demand for the beer continued. It was given the name of Straffe Hendrik (Strong Hendrick), since it was a rich and strong beer.

COLOUR
Clear amber blond.

SCENT
Spicy with hints of black pepper, ginger and a tinge of orange.

FLAVOR
Caramel taste flows into bitterness, with the aftertaste comes a subtle hint of banana in combination with citrus fruits.

FOODPAIRING
The Straffe Hendrik Tripel is easy to combine with many dishes. A spicy fish dish, a large range of cheeses or an airy dessert, it’s a fine match. In comparison to a darker beer, it will not make it any heavier and will add an enjoyable fruitiness.
