Unibroue La Fin Du Monde

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

Original review date 10/1/2008... 750 corked & caged into Ommegang chalice... Clean, thin 1/2-1-finger yeasty even head with a clear seam topping a cloudy, honey body with quick carbonation. Looks like a good Trippel - last pour heads up a lot more but goes quickly. Telltale Tripel signs of bountiful coriander, a little clove and ginger and nice yeast character. Hardcore electricity and wheat-ish bite. Strength dissipates with warmth. The spicy tone of this is extremely solid and electric...clean, yeasty profile with mild malt sweetness. Solid carbonation gives this a slight saltiness that blends well to make a clean-drinking experiment in Beautiful Chemistry. A hearty, husky malt/yeast/wheat profile gives this an extremely solid woody backbone. The spicy sweetness is balanced with the ample carbonation to provide a greay palate tingle. This exhibits quintessential Tripel mouthfeel. This drinks at a very responsible pace. Not quickly but not too slowly. Matters, as it’s a pleasure to enjoy. One of the best all-around offerings that has been given a "good look" in some time...

First, let me say, "a bottle conditioned belgian tripel in a twist top bottle?" Yes, it is. Huge frothy white head, sour malt aroma. Taste of spice and yeast. A high quality tripel. I do not think the alcohol is over pronouced but the again I dont drink much under 8%. It could be that other had it to soon, this will probably age very well.

Tasty. Full fluffy head. Darkish color, taste of yeast and banana. Alcohol is noted but pleasant. Some spice notes. Very good beer.8/4/7/4/16
12 oz. bottle. Deep straw colored with just a slight haze, probably would have been clear if not for the pre-agitation in my backpack. Enormous white head with a careful and gentle pour. Sheets of lacing. Aroma is pleasant, spicey, slightly earthen tone, bits of musty, herbal. Body is light with a pleasant uplifting carbonation. Taste is quite pleasant. Slightly sweetish up front, then shifting to a herbal/earthy taste. Ample bitterness balances out the finish, slightly lingering. Really a pleasant beer, well crafted. Worth the re-rate and bump up in score.

7 May 2004 - Sampled AIBA 2004 - Pleasant fruit and yeast aromas. Cloudy deep yellow. Sweet fruit malt and spiritous, lovely mouthfeel.

Pours cloudy golden with a white fluffy head and not much lace. Aroma is citrus and coriander some fruits and white bread. Flavor is corriander, some orange peel, grapes, sweet malts. Very complex and quite intrigiuing. The palate is medium bodied but very carbonated and extremely smooth. The spice wins out overall on the palate but it is very blended. A fantastic brew. I truly enjoyed this one..

Bottle (750ml). Bottle courtesy of blankboy. Poured hazy and bubbly yellow-orange with a large foamy-foaming white head. Aroma of lemon, lemon zest, yeast, off-dry white wine, varous spices and a nice earthiness to it all. Taste is very much an ashy-spicy-alcoholic belgian trippel (or strong blond) - the alcohol isn’t shy and the spice and herbal taste keep things interesting. Very lively mouthfeel. I guess it’s more sweet than bitter, but mostly it’s spicy. I’ve always liked this one, but find someone to share a bomber with you - it’s got a mule-kick on it!
