The He Said Belgian-Style Tripel is novel for a few reasons: instead of relying on stalwart pumpkin pie spices like cinnamon or ginger for their fall seasonal, they include galangal, a spice more often seen in curry paste; it’s rare to see a canned tripel; and even rarer, it mashes up a traditional European beer style with the very American, often maligned, pumpkin beer. It’s sweet without tasting obnoxiously pie like, with a slightly herbal bitterness from the tarragon, and it’s ideal for the beer snob at your table who thinks they’re too good for pumpkin beer. And if you’re interested in either of the He Said beers, act fast: they’re a seasonal release that’s not available after November.
