Brewed at: Quebec, Canada
Type: Extra Strong Beer
10% A/V
First Impression
Most will pass this beer over for wine, such is its visual likeness to the common packaging of the libation of the vine. A big three quarter liter, green, champagne bottle with a dignified, painted-on label. A plethora of pious references and heavenly nods really do little to restrain ones expectations.
First Sip
An unduly careless pour necessitated a panicked gulp of gloriously expanding head. Gobsmackingly delicious. Allow me to collect myself.
Halfway
Bright amber, golden hued, with the slight cloudiness of bottle finishing. A round, full, balanced palate of peaceful hops and thoughtful malts woven with one full tenth of pure spirit make for what some might safely consider one of the worlds finest beers.
Bottoms Up
Those who have occasion to drink alone are oft regarded with a raised eye-brow, however in the case of this Québécois masterpiece, perhaps being alone allows the quiet solitude with which to best accompany the brew. Spotlessly well accomplished. Bien joué.
