Boquerón Brewing Co. is taking one of its signature beers to a new level with Domes Caribbean Style Triple IPA, a 9% ABV evolution of the brewery’s familiar Domes Double Caribbean Style IPA and a fitting release as Boquerón continues celebrating 15 years of making beer in Puerto Rico.
Previous versions of Domes checked in at 8% ABV. This anniversary expression pushes the beer into Triple IPA territory, adding strength and intensity while keeping the focus on the balance between hops, malt and yeast.
It’s not simply Domes with more alcohol; it’s Domes. Taken to the triple.
15 Years, One Island, One Obsession
This release arrives as Boquerón Brewing Co. celebrates 15 years of brewing in Puerto Rico, making the decision to revisit one of its signature beers particularly appropriate.
Rather than simply bringing back Domes in its familiar form, Boquerón has taken the foundation of its 8% Double Caribbean Style IPA and pushed it one step further.
That evolution fits neatly with the brewery’s anniversary message:
15 years. One island. One obsession with making great beer.
Domes Triple turns that celebration into something you can pour into a glass.
Aroma & Flavor Profile
Aroma
Floral hop aromas lead the way, backed by a subtle malt presence and expressive fermentation character. Despite the beer’s bigger 9% frame, the aroma points toward balance rather than sheer intensity.
Malt Character
A firm malt backbone gives Domes Triple its structure and body, supporting the higher ABV without stealing attention from the hops. It provides enough weight to carry the beer’s strength while keeping the overall profile focused and defined.
Hop Presence
Hop forward and assertive, Domes Triple puts its IPA character front and center. The hops bring intensity and definition, but this isn’t simply a pursuit of overwhelming bitterness. Malt and yeast provide the support needed to keep that hop character in check.
Finish
For a 9% Triple IPA, the finish is notably clean and dry. That dryness keeps the bigger body and alcohol from lingering too heavily, leaving the beer surprisingly easy to return to, perhaps dangerously so at this strength.
Domes Caribbean Style Triple IPA: What to Expect
Expect a bigger, more intense expression of Domes rather than an entirely different beer.
The move from the previous 8% Double IPA to a 9% Triple IPA brings additional strength and hop character, but the components still have clearly defined roles: the hops lead, the malt supports the body and the yeast anchors the profile.
The result is an IPA designed to deliver intensity without sacrificing definition.
Best Enjoyed With
Domes Triple has enough presence to stand alongside equally bold food. Think spicy wings, loaded burgers, barbecue, grilled meats or sharp aged cheeses. Rich and spicy dishes should play particularly well against the hop character, while the beer’s dry finish helps reset the palate.
It’s also a beer worth enjoying on its own, particularly for IPA drinkers interested in seeing how Boquerón has pushed one of its established beers into bigger territory.
At 9% ABV, though, this is one to sip rather than rush.

PRBG Final Pour
Moving Domes from its familiar 8% Double IPA to a 9% Triple IPA could easily have been an exercise in simply making everything bigger.
Instead, the more interesting part of Domes Triple is how Boquerón approaches that extra intensity.
The hops remain firmly out front, floral aromatics give the beer lift, and the malt provides the structure necessary for a beer of this strength. The yeast helps tie those elements together before a clean, dry finish keeps the 9% package from becoming overly heavy.
For Boquerón’s 15th anniversary, one of its signature beers hasn’t simply returned stronger.
Domes has gone Triple.
9% ABV. For the hop heads. For the beer geeks. For the ones who know.
