Very refreshing beer. The only knock I have to give it is the carbonation is a little much. Almost more of a champagne feel, not really what I’m looking for in a beer. I’d like to try it again, because I was a little under the influence when trying this one.

SuperDave (1934) - Beautiful Sunny Mesa, Arizona, USA - JAN 10, 2011
Golden pour with a big fuzzy head. Aromas of malt, yeast, fruit, honey and spices. Flavor is frutiy, yeasty, and slightly sweet, but not overpoweringly so. Nice.

Pours a fuzzy yellow with good amount of head. Aroma of citrus and spices. Good carbonation. Triples aren’t my favorites style but I’ve had better. Nothing memorable here

UPDATED: AUG 14, 2011 E la Karmeliet è proprio unica, è veramente particolare. Si presenta molto bene con colore dorato pieno e una bella schiuma bianca persistente. Aroma di luppolo, agrumi e cereali. In bocca sapore unico, quasi medicinale.

I sampled a 750ml corked and caged green bottle, available at Whole Foods. This beer has an eye-pleasing light orange/amber body and an enormous creamy white head. Upfront, t\here’s a satisfying honeysuckle aroma that also reveals some alcohol and the 8.4% ABV of this tripel. Belgian sugars dominate palate entry, but quickly reveal fruity mix of cantaloupe, citrus and banana, and the expected clove spiciness of the style. A very nice finishing hop and alcohol dryness completes this outstanding and dangerously drinkable beer. I paired this one with an outstanding Uniekaas Reserve aged Dutch Gouda.
