Unibroue Éphémère Apple

Brewed by Unibroue (Sapporo)
Style: Fruit Beer
Chambly, Canada

Smelled of apples throughout. There wasn’t much mystery here, just a Hefe with some apples. Good drinking wtih a rare taste.

12 oz. bottle poured into flute- poured lightly murky dirty yellow, white head quickly disappeared, aroma thick of green apples, an almost hard cider quality, with a dash of yeast and wheat. Hits the mouth with a thin body, tart green apples that tastes like hard cider come through more, and then everything disappears (no middle, no hops, no finish, NOTHING). Disappointing.

12 oz. bottle 1,22,2008. Hazy gold with a spare, but persistiant, white head. Very dominant fresh apple aroma, honey, some faint mustiness. Light body, medium to lively carbonation, very clean, palated cleansing mouthfeel. Lightly sweet initially, followed by a lightly acidic flavor and a faint sourness. Refreshing, drinkable.

12 ounce bottle purchased at Total Wine Fort Lauderdale, FL for $2.29 Good.

Obvious sour apple flavor, however, there is a nice balance between the apple and the spice. Yeasty wheat essence is solid and yet not musty like some wheats, no wild strains here.

Very interesting. The initial taste is of sweet apples and a cidery taste. The finish tastes like candy - green apple jolly ranchers to be exact. Light carbonation and easily drinkable but a little too sweet.

341ml bottle. Pours a hazy amber yellow with a tall white head that stays around for a good while. The aroma is bursting with yeast and notes of apples but not much else. But what else should I expect, I suppose. Tastes like fresh apples, yeast and a bit of hop character mixed with apples in the finish. Light and medium bodied feel. Not overly sweet like other fruit beers I’ve had. Would probably buy this one again.

Pours hazy golden with wispy white head. Apple, lemon, and gum aroma. Lively mouthfeel. Taste is completely removed from the nose. Crisp, thin dusty malt flavor. The apple disappears quickly. My wife seemed to like it better.
