Li Berwette di Noyè

Brewed by Brasserie Saint-Monon
Style: Belgian Strong Ale
Ambly, Belgium

When glass is filled, the aroma of coriande is felt. Its dress is brown. it is necessary to be delicate to pour it. When one goute, the coriande is very present for it. That gives an impression of freshness. In front of a chimney, quite relaxed, it is divine... Congratulations

My last glass at a long and enjoyable day at the Kerstbierfestival -- and one of my favorites from the day. Dark amber brown, not opaque. Aroma of caramel, cinnamon, and is that licorice? Lovely, midly sour acidity like sparkling white grape juice. Maybe a touch of citrus and cider, stronger in finish. Damn tasty.

Beautiful dark amber colour. Strong ginger aroma. Sweet and bitter finish of grape-shells. Quite carbonated. Some fruity notes.

Chestnut brown with a good off-white head. Aroma is yeasty with some liquorice and caramel. This is reflected in the rich flavours, which is also somewhat herbal. The spices (or the yeast?) makes the beer drier, balancing the rich liquorice sweetness. Full-bodied, medium carbonation. An extraordinary Wallonian amber ale.

Bottle conditioned, at Essen Kerstbierfestival 2004. Hazy chestnut, thin cream coloured head and gentle condition. Sweet malt and piney, peppery hop aromas. Sweet and chalky in the mouth with pleasant spicy corriander and peppery hops. Lingering sweet spiciness in the finish. Name means Christmas Wheelbarrow, apparently.

This beer has a dark brown body - hue apperance and a fine white scum collar. I have drunk the beer from the bottle and it had a low carbonic acid. The initial flavor taste is sweet.
