Dieu du Ciel Péché Mortel

Brewed by Dieu du Ciel
Style: Imperial Stout
Montreal, Canada

341ml bottle, no idea where this came from. Pours opaque with a tan head that fell similar to a brew that had nitro pushing it. awesome aromas of fresh coffee, plum, raisin, and licorice. One of the best beers of the year for me.

Finally found a good time to crack this one open. Nice black pour with a decent sized creamy head. Strong roated coffee smell, that was really inviting. Dark bitter coffe up front with a chocolate and just a hint of dark fruit. Nice dry finish.

Pours black with a medium nice head. Smell is lightly smoky, roasty, and coffee like. Taste is roasty coffee and rich dark chocolate with creamy cocoa like bittersweetness. Medium to thin bodied and very drinkable. Medium body and medium carbonation. Alcohol is completely hidden and I enjoyed the well blended coffee and chocolate flavors, neither of which dominated the other.

RBSG 07. A dark brown pour with a foamy brown head. A strong coffee flavor that is excellent. A dark astringent flavor of strong coffee and bitter chocolate. The palate is pretty solid across the board as well. A very good beer.

2005 22 oz. bottle via trade with bentley78 well over a year ago - Pours a dark brown color with a 1/2 finger thick tan head. Light lacing. Aroma is mainly coffee. Flavor is coffee and chocolate. Has a slightly dry palate. Medium body. A good beer. Thanks Ben.

courtesy of tpd975. Had this oen several times, never got to rate it. It was hard to rate after the amazing Aphrodisiaque. pours pitch black, dark mocha head with some nice golden lacing. Aroma malts, lots of roast and hints of coffee. Taste, lots of coffee, roasted malts, leaves a faint tingly hopy mouthfeel with the abv making this one a nice and boozy beer.

11.5 oz. bottle. Pours black with a moderate chocolate brown head that faded to a film after the first two sips and left very little lace. The aroma is very unique with coffee being the obvious dominant trait, with notes of raisins, prunes, earth, and sake. Specifically, the sake aroma reminds me of a very earthy, cloudy brown Chinese sake my wife and I had bought in Chinatown years ago that came in a brown earthenware jar. The flavor is again dominated by the coffee, but without the fruitiness present in the aroma. An alcohol flavor emerges midway, and this grows quite a bit as the beer warms. Bitter coffee finish. Medium bodied, I’ll call it light for an impy stout. I enjoy coffee stouts, but there are a good many I’d reach for before having another of these, especially at $6.95 / bottle.

I think I’m too generous sharing this w/ Blake and Dave... screw you guys :) bottle was a gusher.. just kept slowly fizzing this nice brown foam out the top of the bottle and it tasted so good like good coffee w/ alcohol. Pours a very dark jet black w/ a huge huge thick tan/brown creamy head that laces sooo well. Smell is HUGE HUGE coffee big roasted malts so roasty and nummy smelling. Theres so miuch coffee and num and a touch of smokiness. The palate is nearly over carbonated medium body and decent creaminess. The flavor finishes w/ a big warm glow so the alcohol is definately present. The flavor is mostly a big roasted coffee bean hints of smokiness to it and almost a burnt malt at some point or another. The flavor is reminiscent of some starbucks I had the other day served up by the cutest lil thing :)... very big coffe maltiness. This was a damn good beer thanks axilla for a great trade.
