Craft Brew of the Week Award:

La Fin du Monde, Unibroue, Inc., Chambly, Quebec, Canada

Style - Tripel Belgian Ale

 

This complex brew pours an incredible dark yellow-orange, and has a hazy, opaque, sunset-at-the-shore hue.  It's huge head fades to about 1/2" after a few minutes.  This is a triple fermented golden ale with 9% ABV. 

 

Smooth and slightly citrus flavor, with coriander and spice tones.  It has a noble hop tonality, with a full mouthfeel and an impressive carbonation that feels very much like champagne. 

 

This is one for the Holiday parties!


Cheers!
