Unibroue Don de Dieu

Brewed by Unibroue (Sapporo)
Style: Belgian Strong Ale
Chambly, Canada

POurs hazy yellow with notes of banana and white pepper. The yeast drives into the palate with some resiidual cotton candy. You also see some orange in here as well. A long finish.

Pours hazy but bright yellow with a huge white head. Lots of bubbles in this one. Banana, yeast, champagne, green apples, and bubble gum in the nose. Taste was a cross between a trippel and a German hefe. Bubblegum and banana aplenty up front. Tart pear and apple bite in the middle, and finishes with a sweet, spicy coriander, orange, yeast concoction. The over-effervescence of the carbonation detracted from this, but it was still a good brew.

Hazy golden, looked like a tripel, but lacked a ton of flavor. Had this right after a Westmalle and... well, it fell short. Still a good brew.

Pours honey colored with a quickly dissipating white head. Faint aromas of banana and champagne with no appreciable hop bouquet. Tastes like pear and grape with a pleasantly astringent finish. Medium body.

12 oz. bottle pours a cloudy golden with beautiful head which reduces quickly to a tight white cap with minimal lacing. Smells like sunshine and dandelions, with a front palate of lemony-citrus, middle palate of clementine and corriander and a finish of yeasty sparkle. Sweet but not overly cloying. I can certainly see why it’s called the "Gift of God." For me it’s perfectly reminiscent of a crisp spring day.

Slight sweetness to the aroma, along with the standard Unibroue spice element. Hints of banana, wheat, and yeast are in there as well. It pours a cloudy orange with a big fluffy white head, that fades to about half a finger floating on top. Some orange notes in the flavor, as well as the Unibroue yeast spiciness again. The alcohol is amazingly well hidden, and I wonder to myself how long will it take for the Unibroue yeast notes to fade out in a cellar.

Bottle from Cruzat: Fruity, banana, dough, vanilla, citric. Murky color with lots of sediment. 9% abv well hidden.

Beautiful, hazy, golden with a huge, but quickly disappearing head. The aroma has notes of fruit, sweetness and a hint of yeast. The flavour is initially very sweet, but I gradually get used to it. It has notes of light fruit, but in a heavy way, I find peach, banana, some coriander and citrus, mostly in the finish. The alcohol isn’t present and It’s a nice beer.
