Bad Habits – Wild Tripel Barrel Aged | Ca’ del Brado, Pianoro (Emilia-Romagna)

The wild allure of a bad habit.

Cattive Abitudini takes the character of a Belgian Tripel and leads it off the more predictable path. The Ca’ del Brado brewery cellar lets it mature patiently in wooden barrels, under the action of the cellar’s yeasts and bacteria: this is where its profile develops a gentle acidity and distinctive funky notes.

A 9.8% ABV Wild Tripel Barrel Aged, with hints of candied fruit, honey, and spices. Pour it into a glass and discover it slowly, leaving room for the complexity of mixed fermentation and wood aging.
