Haha, well tripels are usually pretty intense, with lots of hops and malt (3 times as much as a standard Belgian, hence the name). I know for me, at least, it took some time to work up to the tripel. The chocolate and coffee beers are definitely intense and rich, too, but in a very different way. They're heavy, but tend to have a balance between sweet and bitter that you might enjoy more than you did the tripel. Let us know what you end up trying!
