Chambly, Quebec, Canada
5.5% abv
12oz bottle
$10.99 a six pack
Ale Brewed with Apple Juice, Coriander, Orange Peel, and
with Natural Flavors Added
I had this beer last summer a local pub and liked it. I bought this six pack back at the end of
summer so; I guess it is time to do a review.
Best before 2-15-14 is printed on the back of the bottle. Obviously
a good beer to age looking at that date.
Appearance: hazy flat yellow body with a one finger pure
white head – no lacing; make sure to get all the sediment off the bottom of the
bottle.
Aroma: very interesting bouquet; reminds me of fancy
tropical fruits – papaya and guava; citrus peel, apples, pear, bread, sweet;
yes it is white wine like
Flavors: tart apple, lemon/orange citrus meat, dusty yeast, mild
coriander spice,
Mouthfeel: the carbonation has a fizzy feel, light sweet
fruit, tart feel, lightly bitter – just a hint, halfway through low-moderate
carbonation, strange lingering tart taste on the aftertaste … it’s guava like,
To the Point: this can be a fine summer time beverage or beer-cooler
as I call these fruity beers. So, this
summer find a hot day and buy a six pack and enjoy. I did enjoy a couple on a hot summer day; as
for fall, winter or early spring … forget it for it is not my type of
beer. Like I said it is like a
beer-cooler or white wine like or even one of those summer shandy beers.
