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.

Considerable head indeed. Beautiful golden amber color with a sweet fruity and carmel aroma. Smooth fruity taste, with some spice to the end. Exelent drink for this late night.

Great big frothy head. Lasts for a while. Slightly creamy on top. Good carbonation. Nice soft aroma with peaches, bit of spice (corriander), yeast . Color is a nice golden orange. Slightly sweet and malty. Good bit of spice and alcohol warming. Soft mouthfeel. Finish is clean, slighly bitter and has a nice alcohol warming. SLight spice in there also. A very good triple.

This pours very nicely with a humongous puffy head. Pale and golden in color, with an aroma that is slightly musky and extremely citrusy. Very yeasty and doughy, with some fruit flavors coming through, dates and cinnamon mostly with some other flavors showing up as it warms.

This is a whole meal full of bread, wine and cheese. If you close your eyes you can even feel the cellars where they kept the stores hundereds of years ago. The colour and creamy top gives you a really tempting impression. The ending is a bit too sweet for my taste.

750 ML corked bottle. Pours nice deep yellow, almost yellow-orange, with floaties and clear. Big fluffy white head. Aroma of candi (cotton?) and dried fruit. Big and malty flavor of vanilla, alcohol, white raisins, and candi. This is my second favorite triple to the triple Karimeliet...
