Dec 21, 2007 Pous a lightly cloudy gold color, with a medium frothy white head. smells of Belgian candy sugar, sticky sweet fruits, and some yeast. Nice sharp smell. The flavor was much the same, with all the standard flavors of a tripel. Not overly sweet, with a definite good dosage of alcohol which was noticeable throughout. The fruits seem to keep the sweetness at bay for the most part. Not my favorite style, but this is well crafted.

Jun 13, 2005 Couleur ambrée tirant vers l’orangée, grosse mousse plutôt persistante. Présence levurée et plutôt sucré en arômes, sucre brun, cassonade, sucre à la crème. Gros malt épais et collant en bouche véhicule de toutes sortes de flaveurs sucrées restant toujours bien balancées. Texture crémeuse, effervescence piquante et bien présente. Finale un brin amérisante et métallique cachant bien l’alcool. Un exemple bien réussi du style.

Feb 4, 2006 A Mes rate:
33cl bottle from Utobeer. A very fine tripel indeed and for my money one of the best. Malty and sweet aroma. Dark hazy golden body with a well formed head and attractive lacing. Lots of sweetness in the flavour but never too much. Slight aniseed notes with a touch of toffee and caramel and also something decidedly fruity. Maybe raspberry. Alcohol shows through in the spicy finish. A very fine brew overall.

Jul 4, 2009 (750 ml bottle from 1828 Vintage House, cellared for 10 mos. after purchase) Pours hazy gold-amber with two fingers of off-white head. Aroma of light caramel and fruit, perhaps some spice. Mouthfeel is smooth, fairly soft, medium-full and somewhat sticky. Light, droopy, broken rings of lacing. Flavor of light caramel and fruit with some pepper towards finish. Starts out quite sweet but then turns almost sweet and sour as it warms. Slightly hot with a light bitter pinch in finish. Decent tripel but not my favorite Gouden Carolus so far.
