Depends on the weather, season, and what it's being paired with.

Too many variables in the mix to pick a single favorite!

triple bag is a poor example of a tripel and is ridiculously sweet unless you like sugar in your beer, I forget whether it's filtered orr not like some of the other lame ass excuses for tripels, but it probably is.

Most Long Trail beer sucks.

I would have voted for Long Trail Harvest... but traditional Long Trail is good as well!

Huh? When did LT ever market this beer as a tripel?

Double bag is a Sticke - a strong altbier - Triple bag is more likely a dopplesticke.

And adding sugar to beer (before fermentation) does not make it sweeter, in fact, it does the opposite since sugar is fully fermentable.

The guy at Flatbread can brew too - and Shaun e. Hill (formerly of the Shed) started his own brewery recently- and good reports of Lawson's Finest too. I really need to check out Trapp's - the new lager brewery up at Stowe.

Its kind of funny that McNeill's has fallen off the map in the last 10 years as far as quality is considered, but I still run into many VT'ers living in the past who still think they brew the best beer in VT and have never heard of The Alchemist.

Seen my ski house knocked out cold 9:30 pm. Rusty K is my witness. What did he say after we made a beer run? House of the upright sleeping men.
Jr., You ride with Booze lately? Scary fast.
