Deus - Brut des Flandres - 11.5 vol%

[Trappist]

Hi,
Time to celebrate the succeeded upgrade from the BBB Forum 
What beer suits more than a wonderful Deus Brut des Flandres Cuvée Prestige 
Brewed at bry. Bosteels (ABInBev owned)







Wow, this is such a delicate beer!
Drinks like the finest Champagne, which means smooth, light, velvety soft..... (not aggressive carbonated)
Tastes quite alcoholic with that respectable 11.5 vol%.
Nosing gives a subtle aniseed aroma, paired with fruitiness and that hoppy touch.
Tasting gives that sparkling Champagne texture. Fizzy, but not that aggressive, which I truely like.
It drinks like sparkling wine, but it is a beer ofcourse.
A bit sweetish, subtle malty, and also subtle hoppy. A refreshing note of aniseed is noticed. This makes it highly enjoyable.
This is one of those delicate Belgian beers that are so difficult to make, and easily proofs the quality of the masterbrewer's skills.
Quite an amazing beer!! I just hope ABInBev is so wise not to discontinue that wonder of brewing craftsmanship

Includes an interview with Antoine Bosteels!

Cheers,
Filip
