Karmeliet Grand Cru Barrel Aged Edition Mizunara Oak Tripel Distilled. Where distilling and barrel aging harmonize, this limited edition transcends tradition. After meticulous triple distillation, the essence of Tripel Karmeliet, enriched with its spices, is aged in Mizunara oak barrels, revered for depth and complexity. The maceration is then gently infused back into the beer, creating a marriage of distillate and beer. The result is an exceptional beer with layers of spice, citrus, vanilla, and an elegant woody character.
Karmeliet Grand Cru 2024 Tripel Distilled Edition. This limited edition holds the essence of Tripel Karmeliet. For the first time ever, we have Tripel Distilled our iconic three-grain recipe to reveal a richer array of aromas and flavours. Karmeliet Grand Cru 2024 Tripel Distilled Edition is more than a beer, it is a sensorial journey that elevates beer to new heights, blending distilling expertise with generations of brewing mastery.
Karmeliet Grand Cru, the 1st exclusive limited edition. Brewed with the same expertise as our Tripel Karmeliet, it features four varieties of grains contributing to its intense taste and creamy mouthfeel. Barley brings finesse, wheat imparts freshness, oats provide a silky finish, and rye elevates the experience with freshness and roundness. Sublime on the palate, Karmeliet Grand Cru stands out for its pronounced smooth finish and remarkable touch of freshness. A second natural fermentation or refermentation, whether in bottles or barrels, serves to accentuate its fruity aromas.
Karmeliet Grand Cru Brut is a beer like no other. Pour it slowly and let its rich flavours and refined aromas unfold — the result of generations of passion and craftsmanship, brought together in a single glass.
Take your time, taste and enjoy.
Cheers.
