La Bolduc
Some years ago, (I think I might've been 17) my brother bought a case of these in stubby bottles. I tasted and was disgusted at how much it tasted likeliquid bread. First surprise: No stubby bottle! What gives. This is one of the reasons I bought this. A- Trophy gold with a dirty-white, sort of dense head. Looks okay, whatever. S- Grainy. A little sour.I don't know what else to say. T- Second surprise: No liquid bread taste! I don't know if it's the recipe or my palate but this tastes nothing like I remembered it. Instead, grain with some sort of noble hop. Don't know which one(s). Bitterness is well noticeable and tasty. A bit of a seltzer/C02 taste. Slightly watery. Alcohol is pretty noticeable. M- Full. A little drier would be better in my opinion but it's alright. Medium to high carbonation. D-Pretty good. Goes down easy but just a tad too bland to keep you wanting more. I bought a 12 pack and got tired/bored of the taste after 4 but I'm sure I could drink a 24 while camping or something. This is (according to the dep owner) the cheapest beer after PBR. I wish more people would stop being put off by the Unibroue label and drink this instead of Molson, Bleue, BMC. It's a lot better. None of that dirty chemical taste. A friend of mine (a Keith's and PBR drinker) who's always weary of my ''weird'',''nasty'' beers, refused to try one although I told her they were right up her alley. If I need to buy and share beer with a bunch of close-minded BMC chuggers, I'd certainly consider buying this one.
