Streekbrouwerij Achterhoek in Doetinchem crafts this dark tripel using three different malted grains and Trappist yeast. The beer traces its origins to a circle of friends who gathered for swimming and snacks—the group became known as 'nootjes' (nuts), inspiring the Nootsaeck brand.

Pour reveals a clear red-brown hue beneath a cream-coloured head that gradually subsides. The nose presents malty character with chocolate and subtle coffee notes, complemented by hints of star anise. The palate unfolds with fullness and roundness, delivering a lengthy finish.
