Tripel Karmeliet
As the name implies, this is another one of our favorite style of beer, a Belgian Tripel. The first thing that stands about about this particular brew is the incredible aroma. Florals, pear, apple, honey, and spicy hops were all words that came to mind when we stuck our noses in the glass. The taste was incredible as well. I have tasted few beers that have such complex flavor as this one. As detected in the aroma, the pear and fruit flavors are also detectable when drinking it. The coriander is much more apparent when drinking the beer rather than smelling it, but it is definitely not overpowering. The beer is moderately carbonated and has a great mouthfeel to it, and the hops create the perfect amount of bitterness at the end. In my opinion it is a better version of Kasteel's Tripel Blonde. Overall I would say this is one of the better beers I have tasted recently. I rated it as follows:Aroma: 10/10
Appearance: 3/5
Taste: 9/10
Palate: 4/5
Overall: 17/20
