About this beer

Elysian Brewing Company’s Black Hearted Béte is a deceptively complex Belgian-style Tripel, boasting an ABV of 8.4% by volume. The beer presents a dark, obsidian hue derived from both its ingredients and aging process in red wine barrels with blackberries. Brewed from Pale Northern Brewer and Styrian Goldings malt, it’s augmented with clear Belgian candi sugar, contributing to a subtle sweetness. German hops provide balance, while a mixed-culture secondary fermentation introduces acidity and enhances fruity aromas, particularly those of blackberry.

The label artwork features an intricately detailed illustration of a black bird in flight against a dark background adorned with stylized blackberry branches and blossoms. Legal warnings and brewing information occupy much of the remaining space, adding to the slightly gothic aesthetic. This 9.4 fluid ounce offering is presented as a single serving and highlights the unique integration of fruit and barrel aging within a classic Belgian framework.
