Unibroue La Fin Du Monde

Brewed by Unibroue (Sapporo)
Style: Abbey Tripel
Chambly, Canada

12 oz bottle. I passed on the large bottle with the cork in it. I bought the 4-pack for nearly $10. Poured into my favorite tulip snifter. Poured a hazy gold with a fluffy, persistent head. Nose is of fruity resin. Lots of promise in the nose. The flavor carries the promise to fruition. Delightfully sweet tripel with the fruit on the tongue and the yeast in the finish. Light tingle of alcohol lets you know that this is no ordinary drink. Sipped it for an hour. Savoring every drop. Super offering from Unibroue.

Great desert beer. Great delivery of a sweet beer, not overpoweringly so. I will try another tonight, and start my evening with it.

pours hazy yellow with a good sized white head. aroma is fruity- banana, citrus, green melon, spices, and malts. drinks sweet and very fruity with a gritty yeast effect that i think compliments the viscosity of it. finishes dry, almost wine like with a yeasty after taste. very tasty!

12 oz. bottle. Pours a hazy gold with a thin but frothy head. Mmmm...yeasty. Lots of fruit - citrus and banana - and spice in both the aroma and flavor. The formidable alcohol content only registers as a warming in the gullet upon the finish. Such a stellar Belgian-esque beer for both the price and availability

At 9.79 a 4 pack, La Fin Du Monde is a bargain. That’s as much beer as two 750ml’s of Westmalle tripel, but less than half the price. And I think it would be held in higher esteem by bierdos if it wasn’t so ubiquitous. Anyway, it’s as sweet, fruity, and yeasty as you would expect from a tripel but with a spritzier mouthfeel and a sharp, dry aftertaste.

341 mL Bottle. Murky gold body with a small but tenacious foamy head that kept the beer’s surface covered all the way to the last sip and coated the sides with very good lacing. The aroma is a bouquet of apricot, hints of banana and melons, spices, and the alcohol comes through with that 9-octane. The alcohol also comes through in the flavor, not in a way that assaults the senses but in a way that asserts: "Hey! My octane is 9, sip me like wine; don’t guzzle me". Otherwise, the flavor is like a fruit salad in a bottle; apricot, peach, banana, green grapes, and plums followed by a citrusy aftertaste and a creamy-spicy finish. A great sipping beer for those tenacious wintry days that linger into the spring months.

The aroma is definitely with a yeasty, citrus, and slight alcohol aroma. La Fin maintains an excellent full white head, over a cloudy golden color, finishing with a nice lace. It’s flavor is full of citrus, yeast, alcohol properties, and some spice. The finish is smooth, a little too smooth, got me in a heap of trouble. The carbonation is well balanced, and the flavors aren’t too strong. Just right

An excellent beer from Unibroue, cloudy amber color, not a lot of nose but good carbonation and frothy head that leaves a good lace. Higher ABV is hidden. Flavor is sweet citrus and yeast, smooth. $5.79 for a caged and corked 750ml bottle from Concord Cooperative Market Concord, NH.
