Commercial Description:
In spite of modern brewing technology, this beer is brewed according to ancient traditions. It unites, now as in the past, the best products of our soil: rich barley and fine hops.. It's refined character, with a pure and rich taste, will captivate you. It is matured at length in cellar and bottle, and is guaranteed to be brewed only from pale malts. It is traditionally top-fermented and is 100% pure. The Gouden Carolus Triple has a unique colour and a full flavour due to its well-balanced hopping. To properly savour the Golden Carolus “Triple”, pour slowly in one movement leaving the yeast deposit in the bottle. This beer may be served cool but not chilled: 7-8°C is recommended. In 2002 this beer won the Gold Award in the World Beer Cup, San Diego, USA in the “Triple” category.

This beer was a huge delight to drink, it had a golden/yellow body and its aroma and flavor had an incredibly strong taste of lemons.

Rich flavors. Deep color. A really nice beer that deserves higher ratings here. Pours a nice malty body. Not too sweet. But nice and "brown."

Bootle (50 cl ) from Barley Wine, Copenhagem, Denmark. Cloudy yellow with a medium creamy white head. Fruity aroma with clear notes of marzipan, yeast, and spices. Alcohol well hidden. Medium bodied and smooth with soft but lively carbonation. Starts off sweet but ends up dry with a long bitter finish.

27/10 0.33 l bottle at Hopdevil. Pours murky golden body with nice big head. Wonderful aroma of fruits with specific yeast. Flavor nice, quite sweet, not too complex though, but very full bodied. Alcohol is not really felt. May not be typical as it lacks that triple bitterness, but it’s still fantastic. Creamy texture on palate. Finish is very nice, sweet, pleasant and quite long. Another fantastic brew from this fantastic brewery.

On tap. Nice golden/copper color with dense white foam. Aroma of ripe peaches. Excellent lacing. A very enjoyable tripel that finishes slightly tart with peppery notes. Worthy of 2 glasses!

Very cloudy, verging on murky. Big white head. Aroma of spiced stewed banana, some soap. Slight sour too. Palate is sticky, chewy, and tacky. Flavors are pretty nice, there is some spice to balance the sweetness. Gloriously average tripel!
