Brewed by Les Trois Mousquetaires
Style: Doppelbock
Brossard, Canada

Cremeuse, tres malter. Toffee, sucre brun, prunes et alcool. Un delice. A very malty and creamy beer. Notes of toffee, brown sugar, plums and alcohol. Very good.

A 750ml bottle poured into a Stem Glass at 45° Color is a deep rich ruby with good carbonation and a lasting tan head that becomes tighter as you drink it. Aroma is sweet with malt giving a dried pear and molasses scent. It starts with an easy full body that has a slick mouth feel going down soft. Finish comes in sweet with apple, cheery, toffee and yeast then a light bitterness with coffee and a hint of smoke. After taste is dry with a light bitter that gives way to a sweet alcohol feel. Wow this is a great brew, very tasty with bold Belgian yeast and fruit flavors.

Cork and caged bottle from Glouglouburp, thanks Dany, drank at jimmacks Beer Wars preparty. Deep mahogany brown body sitting underneath a creamy beige head. Aroma of chocolate, slight alcohol and a floral sweetness. Dark fruit flavors with lots of raisin and plum, chocolate, with a good amount of sweetness. This was very enjoyable and one of my favorites of the night.

Bottle courtesy of bu11zeye. Clear ruby pour with a strong off white head. Very pretty appearance. Lots of sweet malts with a spice of alcohol. Strong aroma. Some chocolate flavoring with a nice roasted coffee ground finish. Reminds me of Sunday school at the old church. This has very few flaws and is quite drinkable.

Corked 750ml bottle cellared from last year. Decants a hazed chestnut-orange color with ruby highlights. Massive puffy cap...fair retention, laces well. Aroma is dominated with bready-cookie dough malts, cocoa, figs, herbal woodyness, some mustiness....wonderful complexity. The front is thick and rich with toasty-roasted malts some sweetness ensues like toffee, balance is achieved with a pervading noble hop herbal bite,....center is complex with coffee-dark fruits, cocoa, nuts, pipe tobacco, earthiness....finish is long and rich, like liquid bundt cake. Excellent rendition of the style...really a rich satisfying drink without being too sweet .

Malt. Malt. Malt. Maple-like taste left from the alcohol. Malt. Malt. I’m not kidding, so much malt it’s like you’re chewing it. Absolutly perfect. Merci beaucoup, encore une fois !

Bottle: Poured a deep brown color bock with a nice foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of semi-sweet malt with some notes of banana and cloves. Taste is also dominated by some cloves and banana ester with an excellent grain bill. Full body with a creamy texture and good carbonation and no apparent alcohol. Probably one of the best that I have tasted form this brewery.

Tap at Vices et Versa. Dark brown beer. Sticky brown head. Intensely aromatic nose with a nice herbal-accented cocoa and some clean brown malt. Toffee and light cocoa over a chewy lightly fruity maltiness. Some light plums and sweet toasted malts. Milk chocolate with a bit of herbal/hoppy character. Not overly sweet at all, just with a nice light toastiness that works very well in this beer. yup... not a bad choice at all for my last beer in Montreal.
