This was a really interesting beer.  I wasn’t getting a lot of the flavors that I expected until I let it warm up a bit (which is to be expected).  At first, I thought it might be one of the first Dogfish Head beers I was going to feel “meh” about, but I was wrong.  After warming up a bit the Belgian yeast and toffee flavors really started to shine.

Also, if you don’t know this about me, I love vinyl records and when I saw that this was coming out I had to get some.  I just wish I had won one of the Dogfish Head record players they were giving way during Record Store Day a year or two ago.

So for this beer, I popped it open, grabbed my headphones, threw on a record and just relaxed.

Our Belgian-style Tripel brewed with orange peel, cardamom & vanilla

Music has been a part of Dogfish Head since before Dogfish Head. So it’s a natural fit for a brewery that makes ‘Analog Beer for the Digital Age’ to be the Official Beer of Record Store Day, a celebration of the unique culture of record stores and the special role they play in their communities.

Of course, as the Official Beer of Record Store Day, we had to create a special brew for the occasion! Insert Beer To Drink Music To. This Belgian-style Tripel is brewed with sweet orange peel, green cardamom, peppercorns and vanilla. It’s the perfect marriage of beer and music and best when paired with some of your favorite tunes.

Clocking in at 9% ABV, Beer To Drink Music To is a golden orange brew with forward notes of toffee, cardamom, cloves and subtle notes of vanilla.
