Troon — Walking On Thin Ice Triple IPA

Détails techniques

Profil de dégustation

The nose bursts with overripe mango, tangerine marmalade, and candied pineapple, backed by dank resinous pine and a whisper of floral hops. On the palate, the 10.6% alcohol is masterfully integrated into a pillowy, full-bodied texture that coats the mouth with layers of stone fruit, citrus zest, and tropical nectar. The haze delivers a silky mouthfeel while restrained bitterness keeps the sweetness in check. The finish lingers with sticky hop resins, orange pith, and a warming alcoholic glow that never overwhelms the fruit-forward character.

Accords avec les aliments

Pair with spicy Thai green curry or jerk chicken tacos, where the beer’s residual sweetness and fruity aromatics temper capsaicin heat while the robust alcohol cuts through rich coconut and fatty proteins. Alternatively, serve alongside sharp aged cheddar or blue cheese, allowing the hop bitterness and tropical notes to complement funky, crystalline cheese textures.

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.
