Losa Calibro 38 is a sophisticated Belgian Tripel that presents a refined balance between malt depth and yeast-driven complexity. It pours with an intense, fine foam that releases a dry, elegant bouquet characterized by grainy-sweet malt and distinct herbal hop notes. On the palate, a deceptive initial sweetness yields to a firm, clean bitterness and a signature dry, warming finish typical of the monastic style. Sophisticated esters of citrus and spicy, peppery phenols weave through the effervescent mouthfeel, while the 8% ABV remains well-integrated, providing a gentle glow without masking the beer's elegant, crisp character and traditional continental hop profile.
Appearance.Deep yellow to pale amber (5-7 SRM) with brilliant clarity and high effervescence. Features an intense, fine, creamy, and long-lasting white head that leaves persistent Belgian lace on the glass.

Taste.Features a rounded, slightly sweet malt start that quickly transitions to spicy phenols and fruity esters. Firm bitterness provides balance, leading to a remarkably dry and clean finish. Aftertaste carries lingering herbal hop character and a soft, spicy yeast presence.
