Beer Advocate Review #260
Beer: La Buteuse (regular version)
Brewery: Le Trou Du Diable
Style: Tripel
ABV: 10%
Serving: Bottle
Score: A-
***2010 Vintage***
Had this last night while watching Game 3 of the Habs-Bruins series. Shared a little with my wife.
Poured from a 500ml. bottle.
Appearance: Easily 4 fingers worth of white foam that refuses to budge. Very slowly recedes with incredible lacing and a patchwork of fluffiness. Body is a nice honey color.
Smell: Estery, fruit, banana with a slight touch of honey. Quite aromatic.
Taste: A nice spicy bite at the start with a hint of cloves. Banana with some tropical fruit. Ar room temp, some orange is noticeable.
Mouthfeel: A solid, strong body yet quite mellow. Carbonation is active but doesn't hurt the palate. Some underlying bitterness is also present.
Overall: A very nice tripel. Not expansive but pleasing nonetheless. Worth getting for sure.
