Hazelnut & Tripel Karmeliet

April 6th, 2009

Tripel Karmeliet is brewed to an authentic beer recipe from 1679, brewed by Bosteels Brewery, Belgium. This recipe includes the use of three kinds of grain: wheat, oats and barley. Smells like hints of vanilla mixed with citrus aromas. Tastse light and fresh with a creamyness of oats combined with a spicy, lemony dryness.

This beer pairs excellent with our Hazelnut truffle. This truffles whipped and creamy ganache center is flavored with all natural hazelnut oil and fresh hazelnut tidbits. All shelled within a darker milk chocolatedome mold.

Always remember proper paring procedure entails first tasting the beer on its own.  Beer Tasting Specs

Then tasting the chocolate on its own. Chocolate Tasting

And Finally tasting the chocolate again and letting it melt on your tongue slowly but not fully, next take a sip of the beer and swirl them together around in your mouth. Remember to breathe while doing this to enhance the flavors.
