Unibroue La Fin Du Monde

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

bottle, hazy orange-golden liquid, smells sweet and fruity, taste is very sweet and fruity. nice brew, though a bit too sweet

Bottle. Pours golden yellow with a frothy white head and good carbonation. Nose has citrus, banana, wheat and clove. Flavour is fairly similar, not overly sweet, with maybe a little more fruit and a little less grain. Palate is fizzy and smooth at the same time with a fairly long finish and a little lasting bitterness at the end. Overall a very good beer from the excellent Unibroue.

22-AUG-2009, bottle @Henriks. Beautifull high white head on orangy colour. Yeasty nose with apricots and other fruits. Loads of fruits and spices, and then the wonderfull creaminess. High, high carbonation, and yet very easy drinkability. Best Tripel ever?

Pours a murky yellow with a nice finger of white froth. I have to comment on the insane carbonation, it looks like a fountain coming off of the etching in my Sam Adams Sensory glass. Smells of bread. Some citrus character but not hoppy citrus, more like orange peel? Very clovey. Tastes very spicy, pretty dry on the finish. Orange ester is present again. Mouth is extremely high carbonated, so much so that I had difficulty detecting the body, which is somewhere in the middle by the way. Overall as far as tripels go I much prefer the St. Bernardus but even that is comparing apples to oranges, this is a very spicy example.

A respectable tripel...but lacking that typical licroice and wheat flavor and aroma. Puours a golden color, with a touch of haze, but pretty clear. White head of average size. Flavor is on the sweet side, but is not cloying in any way. An approachable tripel for those who aren’t wrapped up in what the style is supposed to tast like. In other wrods, there were no strong wheat, alcohol or licorice flavors. As with all Unibroue beers, extremely affordable!

12 oz. bottle. Pours a golden yellow-brown with a full 1.5 inch head that dissipates quickly to a thin sparkly head. Nose is faint, general citrus and acid. Taste is complex, moving to a mix of lemon, clove, that dances in the mouth. The triple fermentation is well worth it, as the taste lingers on my palate crisply.

This was a cloudy golden colour. It had an aroma of hops and wheat. It had a fruity taste with a hint of wheat.

This is such a refreshing beer, light and crisp with notes of ripened bananas and citrus. I bet it would pair well with a white fleshed fish.
