Brews and Blues Beer and Smokin’ Blues

La Fin Du Monde

Brewery: Unibroue
Where: Quebec, Canada
Beer: La Fin Du Monde
Style: Tripel
IBU: N/A
ABV: 9.0%

Today's sample is the third of a mixed 4-banger of Unibroue beers I picked up recently.  La Fin Du Monde is a big 9% ABV Tripel.  I sorta screwed this one up when I poured it and got it cloudy from the yeast sediment on the bottom of the bottle, but that was my stupid fault, and it doesn't affect the flavor of the beer.  It just looks nicer in the glass when it's done properly... This beer poured with a nice golden color and a decent head that subsided into nothingness rather quickly in my glass.  The beer has a fruity aroma with no noticeable hop presence, which is true to the style.  It has a lighter body and a crisp finish.  There is simply NO sense of the alcohol in this beer, so it should be consumed cautiously.  This is definitely a great example of this style in my opinion.  I haven't sampled a lot of these, but I plan to start working on the Belgians very soon!  I have several standing by as we speak!
