Unibroue Don de Dieu

Pours a light golden color with a small tight white bubbly head. There wasn’t any lacing on the sides of the trappist glass. The scents were of apples, pears and malt. The taste was very flat and thin, with a slight stale cider feel. There was a sweet, cloying after bite. I didn’t care for this beer too much.

750 mL bottle. Hazy yellow with fizzy white head. Aroma of pear, apple, banana, and yeast. Pear, orange, and clove with a dry peppery finish.

Opeque golden yellow with a short lived white head which leaves no lacing. The flavor is sweet and yeasty with a prominent spicy flavor I have yet to identify. Classicly Belgian. Hides the alcohol well.

Don de Dieu is a crystal clear coppery gold ale that is very sparkling. Its white head diminishes quickly and becomes turbulent. The aroma is light and of peach, white wine, black pepper, and something herbal. It is light-to-medium bodied and very dry. The carbonation is soft and fizzy. The flavor is suprisingly stronger than the light aroma. It is acidic, starts a little bitter and ens a little acetic. It has a lot of Pinot Blanc qualities. Not incredibly exciting, but a good sipper.

Bottle. Pours hazy yellow/orange with a tall, foamy white head. Aroma is full of banana, clove, a plethora of ripe fruits, and tart. Flavor is a great balance of strong hay, musty banana, juicy ripe fruit, acidic lemon tart, and alcohol warmth. The mouthfeel is medium, and the dry finish leaves you longing for another sip. Man, this was good.

Bottle. High white fluffy and quickly disappearing head. Hazy light yellow body. Spicy banana aroma. Acidic lemon falvor with a good deal of carbonation hiding the high alcohol percentage well. Short aftertaste.
