Aug 3, 2008 bottle from bauer wine and spirits in boston. i didn’t expect to see anything from dieu du ciel, so this was a pleasant surprise - and the IPA aroma was also a surprise. a half mix between the brutally bitter american hops and classic british hops. not palate-bruising but certainly bitter, and far bitterer than it smells. seems that beer fans owe it to themselves to visit this brewery. green hops characteristics and perceptibly malty finish, with a pleasantly hoppy aftertaste; nice beer.

Aug 3, 2008 Sample at the 2008 VT Brewers Fest - Poured a cloudy dark amber in color with a medium white head. Aroma was medium of grapefruit and citrus with a hint of malty sweetness. Flavor was nice and hoppy with strong elements of citrus and pine hops. Definitely some malt underlying. Finish is long and bitter.

Caramel is notable in flavour as well. Is medium bodied. Quite dry. Medium to strong bitterness in the end, but its countered well by a fresh sweetness. Very nice.

Jul 27, 2008 I like this beer. But I’m afraid that it comes across as an "also ran" Alpha King, at three times the price. In so many ways it was similar to FFF AK, though it seemed all around softer. Good...but when I can get a sixer of AK for the price of two of these, it’s really no competition.
