Trois Pistoles
Poured from a caged and corked 750 into a Chimay Chalice A-Deep mahogany with ruby highlights with a deep creamy tan head. This is what beer should look like...beautiful. Clear in the initial pour, but cloudy as the bottle goes down. S-Belgian yeast, dark fruits (raisins, figs, dates, dried cherries, etc) T-Nose carries through to the taste with a marked alcohol presence...not overwhelming, but definately there and warming. Some sweet chocolate covered cherry in the taste as well...delicious. M-Well balanced mouthfeel with balanced carbonation and a medium full mouth. D-Exceptionally drinkable. Another great beer from a brewery that has the whole Belgian thing down to a science. This is damn near perfect. Now which is better, this or Brooklyn 2? My money is on this....
