My first Unibroue experience and i came away impressed i don’t know if its a Gift from God but the flavor of this beer is excellent poured a nice pale gold color with plenty of head not overpowering but a lot of citrus flavor and a very little hint of some spice .... hides the 9% very well not malty or hoppy very soft flavor a memorable brew

Strong aroma of golden hay. Somewhat cloudy with lively carbonation. Frothy head. Somewhat of a champagne mouth-feel. Crisp and refreshing.

Sampled during Cellar’s Wine & Spirits Wednesday evening tasting via Unibroue representative. Pours a cloudy golden blonde brew with a thick and lumpy off-white head that has some nice retention. Aroma of mild yeast, golden grain bread dough, a touch of honey and citrus zest. Taste is medium bodied, light carbonated with flavors of golden grain malt, yeast, some honey and a touch of vanilla. Finish is semi-sweet with a yeast, banana and golden grain malt aftertaste.

Cloudy yellow pour with a finger thick off white head. Yeast and corn on the nose. A strong spice and a hint of alcohol as well as some over ripe banana and cloves.

35.5cl from World of Beer (Largo, FL). Pours a cloudy golden honey color with thick frothy white head. Looks like a tripel ale. Smells of bread, yeast, dough, fresh hay, and hints of honey and citrus. Taste is sweet with notes of honey and caramel, malt and citrus. Medium-bodied ale with a quick-sweet apple finish.

This beer reminds me a lot of Victory Golden Monkey but doesn’t have as overpowering of an alcohol taste. Pours a creamy golden color with a quickly diminishing head. Sweet but not too sweet for a Belgian strong ale. Will definitely buy it again but it ranks behind Trois Pistole as ar as Unibroue beers go.

Bottle from Wine Warehouse in Charlottesville. Pours hazy orange with a medium fizzy head that disappears quickly. Aroma of citrus, pineapple, caramel and spice. Taste is the same but with a yeast character and more pronounced. Fizzy.

Appearance: Pours a cloudy, murky golden body with a tall, though diminishing, white head. Smell: Spiced wheat malts, a wide variety of fruit juices, vanilla, and clover honey. Taste: Malted wheat with a restrained honeylike sweetness. Juiced pears, nectarines, and bananas, all a bit tangy and stirred up with a vanilla bean. Touch of spice and sourness. Maybe a few flecks of candi sugar. Warming, fruity finish. Mouthfeel: Medium-bodied. Moderate, lively carbonation. Some creaminess to the mouthfeel. Drinkability: Not bad, not bad. I’m going down Memory Lane with Unibroue, and, so far, I’m leaning towards the maltier offerings, Maudite and Trois Pistoles.
