Bullfrog Diabolique

750 ml cc Bottle from PUB’N. Produces a huge cork pop accompanied by a flash of white smoke. Nice! Pours turbid deep golden toward orange with a huge, fluffy 4-finger, vert loud, boisterous head that seems to say, "You can;t handle the Diabolique, punk!" Nose is bready rock sugary malt, spicy yeast, florals, apricotty fruit, and hopcit. Tastes rock malty, fruity, spicy yeasty, with backup floral and peppery notes. Palate is very lively, on the dry side, with spucy peppery, yeasty, and fruit throughout. The head stays through the repour, and forms marvelous shapes reminiscent of La Chouffe Houbbelein. This one, as with all the BF 750s I’ve had, is very good.

750mL bottle courtesy of kmweaver. Thanks Ken! Dark hazed gold, monster off white head. Lemon meringue and powdered pears aromas ride soft undercurrents of spiced bread and hay. Juiced lemony fruit and spiced yeast balance well on a soft honey caramel backbone. Light to medium bodied with moderate carbonation. A nice rendition coming from PA...

25.4 oz bottle. Pours mostly white foam that slowly collapses leaving a craggy headscape atop a hazed honey brown. Lovely lacy swirls. Nose is yeast and pastry dough with a touch of citrus peel. Smooth yeasty body with zingy carb. Taste an interesting mix of banana and citrus. Light spice; dryish. A wonderful Belgian take but still unique.

(750ml bottle, thanks kmweaver) Soft, large white head atop cloudy apple juice body. Aroma is medium sweet, straw, yeast, some peach, light bread. Taste is medium sweet, straw, alcohol, peach. Effervescent medium body, light acidity.
