Unibroue Trois Pistoles

This is my favorite dark beer. Although it does not taste very dark, it brings a rich, full flavor of dark beer that is not too harsh. It has a fine look and long-lasting distinguished taste. Everything from this brewery is a hit. If you want to try a lighter brew, try their La Fin Du Monde.

Shared this one w/ SkyCop32. Picked up at Maruhn Getränke in Darmstadt. Pours a nice dark reddish amber color. Aromas of fruit, and some other hints, maybe some spices, maybe caramel. Flavor is a bittersweet, malty, and a hint of hops with a nice bittersweet finish.

Pours a dark, cola color with an off-white, heavily carbonated head that disappears rather quickly. Aroma is rich, sweet, and fruity, with hints of grapes, plums, and cherries. The taste is full, with fruit flavors as well as caramel malt and spices. Palate is fizzy, with a slightly sticky finish and alcohol warmth. An excellent beer with its own unique character.

2nd last bottle of my six pack from 9 months ago sitting in my basement. Figured the autumn months is best time to have this one. Poured into my Chimay glass; brown with a thin tan head. Aroma a grape/raisin, with some spices, malt and alcohol. Flavour of dark fruits and spice - mostly nutmeg and clove, with some yeast in there as well. Finishes very smooth.

Pours dark cloudy brown, thin tan head. Aroma is woody, earthy, a bit sweet. Flavor is a backdrop of roasted malt, with pleasant symphony of cinnamon, licorice, orange, dark fruits, mild alcohol. Medium body with low carbonation. Rich without being overpowering, a very interesting (in a very good way) brew.

[Bottle] Pours brown with a large tan head. Aroma is caramel, and yeast. Flavor is quite raisiny and yeasty and very light. There is also a bit of alcohol.

750ml bottle. Pours a VERY dark brown with a foamy tan head. Aroma: Tough to say, earthy with dried fruit. Flavor: Just like the aroma, and very malty.

I’ve tried at least twice now, and I frankly just don’t get this beer. Dark brown pour with bubbly white head; overcarbonated in the way nearly all Unibroue beers tend to be. Dark fruits, cloying Belgian sugar and a floral/perfumy smell and taste I just don’t like. Reminds me of the perfume in the (unused) cat litter we buy Cloying. I try, but I just don’t appreciate this beer.
