Starting with the least alcoholic of the three, the 7.7%ABV Eau Bénite pours a dark gold with a big frothy head and lots of lovely bubbles. The nose was full of fruit and spice, and at the same time somewhat musty. Taste wise, the Eau Bénite continues the fruity theme from the nose, sweetened with honey and gingery spiciness. This beer put me in mind of the La Goudale I had enjoyed earlier in the holiday, although with a fuller body and a smooth softness in the throat.

ReplyDeleteI am hoping to try more when I am on the other side of the Atlantic - some much to discover, where to start, where to start?
ReplyDeleteThere was a chance before Christmas of me going to Saskatchewan (Regina to be exact) and I immediately started scouting about for Canadian beers to try. In fact, I found there are a couple of micros in Regina. Alas the trip got cancelled, so I have to experience these through your writings :(
ReplyDeleteUnibroue brew some great beers and Canada does have a few interesting beers and pubs so it would appear. Have you visited Alan Mcleod's 'A Good Beer Blog'?
