| Brewer's Description: | The Don De Dieu in Tadoussac, June 3, 1608, under the command of Samuel De Champlain de Brouage, commissioned by the King of France to pursue the exploration of this vast and inhospitable land called America. From website: This smooth, exceptionally strong triple wheat ale offers a complex flavor that is slightly fruity, malty, nutty and yeasty, with a hint of unfiltered sake. We recommend pairing it with grilled game meats, spicy Asian or Latin cuisine, ripened cheeses and charcuterie. |
| Appearance: | Cloudy, dark golden color. Floaty bits of whitish yeast. |
| Aroma: | Smells odd. Almost a sour smell similar to that of apple cider. Not very pleasant smelling. |
| Taste: | Tastes about as bad as it smells. Bad enough to not finish the bottle. Is it supposed to taste so bad? |
| Mouth Feel: | Quite a bit of carbonation. Taste is bad enough to not want to examine it further. |
| Drinkability: | Not drinkable. Tastes & smells horrible. Looks gross with the yeast floaties in it. Eww. For the beer's sake, I hope this had gone bad. Pretty unlikely though, since it's 9% ABV. |
| Score: | 1 / 10 |
