Tripel Karmeliet is a classic golden Belgian Tripel with a distinct character from the use of three grains.
Appearance: Rich and refined deep Golden colour with a creamy white foam
Aroma: Very refined & complex; with hints of vanilla mixed with herbs and citrus
Flavour: A medium-bodied beer that is delicately warming. There is a freshness from the wheat and a creamy mouthfeel from the oats. Rich notes and soft sweetness of lemon cake join with hints of coriander seed and hay and a quinine-like dryness on the finish.

Tap at Delirium Akasaka. Once again, surprised I hadn't rated this before. Pale blond, white bubbly head. Aroma very grainy, lots it of hoppiness, some creamy sweetness. Taste similar, nicer than I remember it being, quite light and hides alcohol well. Tripel yeasty sweetness. Decent.

Yeasty, sweet taste , very fruity (orange, mango, banana). I also found coreander. Bit tart. Very nice beer, very easy to drink, but a bit too sweet.Re-rate: wow, what an aroma. Chalk, sweet grapes and citrus. Sweet, very fruity (grapes, mango, citrus) and yet herbal flavor. Some tartness and alcohol. Lovely beer, full of aroma and flavor. I had to boost the rating a bit.

Aus der Flasche im 2014-05 getrunken. Ein typisches Abbey Triple. Wenn es auf etwas Temperatur kommt richtig lecker!

Dit bier in dit glas voelt heel verkeerd. Blijft een geweldige tripel. Wel verplichte 'vroeger was ie beter'.

Bottle from Intermarche in St Rémy at home in Eygalières. Slightly translucent golden straw pour with fine white head. Aroma is banana, straw, caramel, pepper, lemon. Taste is spicy grassy hops with rich caramel malt. Full bodied but not slick. Very good tripel, but not a style I love.
