¿como puede ser que haya gente que aún no la ha probado? Increible. La mejor de su estilo.

Slightly hazy pale yellow with copious white head. Baked banana bread, floral citrus, yeast, light booze. Rounded malt sweetness, nectar, banana, dough and ending with bold, but not overpowering citrus and light acidity. Absolutely no alcohol flavor. Ultra-smooth and silky from the oats. Some residual sweetness, lightly dry. World class.

Just a hint of hops and perfect full body taste. Nice creaminess which is what I like in a Tripel.

UPDATED: FEB 9, 2012 (33cl bottle from Ma Poule @ Torvehallerne) Pours a richly carbonated, clear golden with frothy, white head. Good lace and retention. Aroma is pleasantly complex - malty with green, fruity notes and other hints of yeast. No detectable hop in the aroma. Oily texture, full body, almost sparkling with an astringent and alcohol smooth finish. Complex taste with tart as well as caramel impressions, notes of apple and only a little bitterness on the closing end. I didn’t really find a tripel I appreciated before this one, which is very pleasant and definitely merits further study.

Pours a cloudy and light golden color with about a finger of white head that quickly dissipates. Aroma is subtle banana and clove esters typical of belgian yeast. Taste is very fruity and refreshing with some slight malty notes. little bit of warmth to this beer as well even though there is no distinct alcohol flavor

Clear draft white head. Off skunky aroma and taste. Grassy and astringent, bitter. No hop, no malt. I might have gotten a bad pour looking at some of these other ratings, I’ll try it again and re-rate this, but overall, wasn’t a very pleasent tasting expirence.

la tripel karmeliet ha un aspetto fantastico,una schiuma corposa e persistente,un sapore caramellato e molto piacevole.

Padilha (64) - BRAZIL - FEB 4, 2012
Densa e bem alcoolica, sabor adocicado, lupulado e ácido, muito bem equilibrado. Uma cerveja muito diferente das outras mais comuns.
