Unibroue Trois Pistoles

750ml corked bottle served in a chalice. Poured a dark copper with lots of carbonation. Two fingers of off white head. Fruity with some spice in the aroma. Smooth, medium bodied beer with some malty sweetness and a little spice in the finish. Sometimes the Unibroue beers blend together with me. Nothing really jumps out at me, but I still enjoy them on a purely hedonistic level. Good value for your money.

The beer pours a deep red almost hazy copper colors with a thin brown head that is mostly lasting. The nose is a sweet mix of stone fruit, raisins, oak, spicy ginger and yeast. The flavor follows the nose with a sweetness and hints of orange, spice and wood. The finish is sweet malts that is short lived.

Pours a dark hazy chestnut brown with a beige head. The aroma has a rich dried fruit sweetness without being overpowering or cloying. The flavour is nothing short of spectacular, though it perhaps doesn’t pack quite the same deep flavour as say, Rochefort 10, it is actually better balanced. No single flavour dominates, the bitterness, alcohol, licorice, spices and dried fruit all working together perfectly. Because of this, it is flavourful enough to enjoy as a winter warmer whilst at the same time being suitable to drink in quantity with food.

Fruity overtones were neglected by the pure fashion of beer. A great and pure beer at birth, but, it became too simple. It became a concoction of materials. It was tasty, fruity, indulgent. But, I didnt want it to be like that. It was special, but it didnt want to be. and thats why I like it.

In the first intial pour the head is an enormously tan colour that you think is going to attack you, so you take a step back. Cautiously, you bring your nose forward and smell the lively fruit that bounces around inside the glass. Once it settles a few minutes later, the colour of the beer is dark red or light chocolate. Lots of citrusyness, a very intense taste, with every sip I never got used to it.

smells like spices when you open it and then a smell sort of like a wine. fruity tasting. a pleasant appearance with a unique colour and very creamy. i stopped drinking this regularly for a while i cant believe i did, its good value for the price considering each one is almost two 5 percent beers.. re-rate due to buying a pack that seems to be worse quality than when i had it before

Deep chestnut with a ridiculously creamy head. Unibroue beers always have amazing, lush bubbles and mouthfeel. This one pretty much has to warm up a bit before being consumed, or else a trademark cardboard flavor will dominate. Prunes, malt, almost red-winey flavor. Still a little of that cardboard. A bit boozy, but still covers the 9% decently.

Drak brown brew with thick tan head. Strong malt aroma followed by fruit: prunes (duke of), datte, raisin. Alcool, chocolate and winy taste. Quebec’s pride.
