Kasteel Gouden Triple d’Or
This is a very good tripel in the vein of a light, summery variety. The color is a dark yellow and smells of alcohol and citrus. The flavor is crisp and citrusy with a nice dose of sweetness. Through the mouth and down the throat it maintains a nice carbonation burn, and the sweetness seems to traverse the palate to the back of the mouth where it lingers long after it has gone. But, don’t be fooled by the crisp lightness of the beer! It chimes in at 11% abv, and is capable of doing some damage.
