My favorite beers are currently LaTrappe Tripel,
Franziskaner Hefe Weissbier and Guinness Stout.
All very different beers, and all favorites for different
reasons and different moods.

I'm wondering if there are any other beers out there
that are similar to LaTrappe Tripel? I love the flavor,
but sometimes the alcohol content can be a little too
high. Can anyone recommend a beer with a similar
flavor, but maybe a little less alcohol content? I've
tried the LaTrappe Dubbel several times, but I don't
like the flavor as much as the Tripel.

Thanks in advance.

Try to find Witkap Tripel (Br. Slaghmuylder, Ninove, Belgium)

There are lots of Belgian and Belgian-style Triples out there.
It's a hallmark of the style to have somewhat of an elevated alcohol
content. You want a bit less, you could try Leffe Blonde, but I'm
generally loath to recommend Interbrew products when there's so many
good beers available from independent producers. How about some
Don de Dieu from Unibroue, or Chimay White/Triple, or even New
Belgium's Triple?

Somebody else also recently recommended Chimay Triple to me,
I'll see if I can locate it. Thanks for the suggestions.
