Unibroue Brewing Co. La Fin Du Monde

La Fin Du Monde
Unibroue Brewing Co. Quebec Canada
Belgian Tripel  9.0% ABV
Beer Advocate: A

A:  Beer pours a hazy golden honey color topped with a creamy off-white head.
S: Smells of bright fruits and spices, bready malts and belgian yeast are prevalent.   Citrus notes (lemon/ orange zest) , banana, green apple, and stone fruits are all slightly detectable with a minor hop floral aroma in the background.
T: There is a lot going on in this beautifully balanced beer from bright tart fruits, floral hops and bready malts and fruity yeast to subtle spice notes and slight lingering herbal hop finish. 
M:  Crisp, medium bodied with moderately bright carbonation that leaves you wanting more.
D:  Especially drinkable though at 9.0% ABV this beer will certainly sneak up on you.
Food Pairings:  Think scallops, sole schnitzl, weisswurst, hopwurst, mussels.
