Troon — I am Withering Away 01-10-25

Détails techniques

Profil de dégustation

The nose opens with explosive tropical fruit—mango, passionfruit, and tangerine—layered over a pillowy wheat base and subtle coconut-like hop character. On the palate, viscous and full-bodied, waves of juice-forward citrus mingle with delicate pine resin and a whisper of floral notes, all suspended in a creamy, almost milkshake-like texture. The alcohol warmth remains surprisingly well-integrated despite the robust 9.7% ABV. The finish lingers with gentle bitterness, fading stone fruit sweetness, and a soft, resinous quality that invites another sip.

Accords avec les aliments

Pair with spicy Thai green curry or Nashville hot chicken, where the beer’s sweetness and full body temper capsaicin heat while tropical hop notes complement aromatic herbs. Alternatively, serve alongside a rich triple-cream brie or aged Comté, allowing the beer’s fruit-forward character and moderate bitterness to cut through fatty richness while echoing the cheese’s nutty complexity.

About Troon Brewing Company

Troon Brewing Company was founded in 2012 in Hopewell, New Jersey, by husband-and-wife team Chris and Maria Henke. The brewery has built its reputation on an uncompromising commitment to traditional Belgian and mixed-fermentation brewing methods, emphasizing patience, craftsmanship, and the use of exceptional ingredients. Troon specializes in farmhouse ales, saisons, and spontaneously fermented beers, often incorporating local and foraged ingredients that reflect the terroir of their New Jersey location.

The brewery operates with a distinctly artisanal approach, brewing small batches and allowing beers to develop naturally over extended aging periods, sometimes in oak barrels. This dedication to time-intensive processes and wild fermentation has earned Troon a devoted following among craft beer enthusiasts who appreciate complexity and authenticity. The Henkes maintain a small-scale operation that prioritizes quality over quantity, with limited distribution that has only enhanced their cult status within the American craft beer community. Their farmhouse-style taproom reflects the rustic, agricultural aesthetic that informs their brewing philosophy, creating an experience that connects drinkers directly to the traditional European brewing heritage that inspires their work.
