About this beer

Lickinghole Creek’s Bourbon Barrel Three Chopt Tripel Ale is a strong, golden ale aged for six months in Kentucky Bourbon barrels. Weighing in at 11.5% ABV and 25 IBU, this offering builds upon a traditional Belgian Tripel base with notable American and New Zealand hop contributions—specifically Sterling and Motueka—imparting lemon and lime notes alongside a hint of tropical fruit. The bourbon barrel aging lends a vanilla and oak character that complements the honeyed sweetness of the Tripel, resulting in a remarkably smooth finish. Crafted with well water sourced from the farm's spring and grown barley and hops on 290 acres, Lickinghole Creek aims to capture the essence of the Virginia countryside in each bottle.

The label depicts a whimsical, stylized illustration of a fox, seemingly mid-leap, set against a textured, earthy background. The artwork evokes a sense of rural charm and hints at the brewery's commitment to local ingredients and a connection to the land. The design features classic typography and a badge proclaiming the beer "Craft Brewery" and "Aged in Oak Bourbon Barrels".
