Commercial Description:
Dernière volonté (French for "Last Will") is a mix of Belgian and English brewing traditions. Complex flavours of hop flowers and spicy, fruity esters from our belgian yeast are perfectly balanced with the robust flavours and aromas of malt. The finish is commandeered by an assertive aroma from dry-hopping.

Bottle. Pours a hazy sticky looking amber with a large creamy white head. Sweet fruit, pears, candy, honey. Medium bodied, but a little empty. Not much of the nice aromas carry over into the body. Some light candy maltiness, and a nice quinine like bitter at the end.

I had this one with my good buddy J. Poured a cloudy golden with a quickly dissipating white head. Smells very fruity and flowery, almost overbearing. The taste was just as putrid and it had a dry finish. I wasn’t a big fan of this junk.

Sampled at vt brewfest 09. Pours a cloudy yellow/orange with a small white head. Aroma of spicy yeast, fruit, citrus and floral. Flavor was yeasty with citrus fruit and some spiciness with a medium body and has a dry finish.

Bottle at the Monk’s Kettle S.F. This golden ale poured with a decent white head and a floral aroma. Lots of floaties. The flavor is caramel malt with a nice yeast presence, subtle hop bitterness and a dry finish.

11.5 oz. bottle. Pours a very hazy gold with a thin-moderate linen white head that faded to a thick ring after the first two sips and lingered to the end, leaving partial lace. There are a lot of white chunks floating about, not just some little specks but fairly substantial pieces as well. It really doesn’t look all that appetizing. The aroma is very nice with lots of Belgian yeast, lemon, and floral notes. The flavor is nowhere near as bright and lovely as the aroma. Initially, there is some muted Belgian yeast, however, this is overrun by a considerable dose of hot black pepper. Hot, bitter and very dry at the finish. This beer is definitely not for me.
