Unibroue La Fin du Monde (2014) Tripel at 9% ABV (C$2.79 at NLC Howley Estates, 341 ml, bottle date 19-Nov-2014, reviewed 6-Jan-2016)
Appearance: clear pale gold with one fat finger of fluffy off-white head, short retention and minimal lacing. (3/5) Aroma: slight citrus, banana, malt, candi sugar, stone fruit, and yeast. (9/10) Taste: moderate-high sweet, mild bitter, moderate spiciness. (8/10) Palate: medium-light body, lively to moderate carbonation, medium duration slightly boozy finish. (5/5)
Pretty consistent with the prior vintages I’ve tried. Solid Belgian character, light mouth feel for a high ABV. I still find it just slightly too sweet, but it’s an otherwise solid performer. (17/20)
8.5/10 #ryansbooze ryansbooze.com
