Collaboration with Dieu du Ciel
Lips of Faith Series
Brasserie Dieu du Ciel
Heavenly Feijoa Tripel
Ale Brewed with Feijoa and Hibiscus
1pt 6oz bottle
9% abv
Appearance: misty amber golden body with a one finger white
head that some lacing on the glass.
Aroma: now that is unique; white wine like for sure; I don’t
know what Feijoa fruit smells like but, the fruity smell is sweet yet
tart; swirl of floral; very aromatic; if Faith’s lips
smelled like this when I kiss her – I would be a happy man;
Flavors: Yes, flavored lipstick; very fruity – once again it
must be the Feijoa fruit; tropical sweetness with a tart note on the finish;
pineapple, mango, guava, white grapes, apple, peach; the tartness reminds me of
a green apple and cranberry mix; there is also a touch of dusty white pepper on
the finish; white wine like of the flavor as well;
Mouthfeel: sweet upfront; tart on the mid and finish; linger
tart notes with a lip smacking sweetness; low carbonation with a very fine fizz
to the feel; the tart feel seems to clash with the sweet fruit on the
aftertaste; semi-dry on the finish; the alcohol really did not come into play;
To the Point: not everybody; first couple of sips I did not
like it and my wife liked it on her first couple of sips; halfway thru – I am
starting to like this and she did not like it; if I was blindfolded and tasting
this I would guess it was a white wine; the only give away would be the body
weight is a little heavier than a white wine; if this was a flavored lip stick –
I sure would like to kiss Faith’s Lips.
