Big Nose est brassée dans le style Triple à partir de malts d’orge Pilsner, Pale Ale et Munich. Cette bière de dégustation est produite avec une quantité généreuse de houblons Nugget et Willamette. Afin d’intensifier les notes aromatiques, la bière est infusée à froid (dry-hopping) avec du houblon alsacien Triskel pendant sa maturation. Cette blonde dorée se caractérise par une structure gustative complexe dont la puissance et l’équilibre raviront vos sens.

Very good, dense & fine yellowish-amberish head, leaving lace over clear copper beer, not very actively carbonated looking; Spicy nose, white candi sugar, herbs, ’hot’ yeast. Toasted malts, other grains, rootspices. Very toasted flavour. Again spicy and yeasty. Bitterness - spicy - overrules the obvious maltsweetness underneath. Hint of pineapple, orangepeel and scorched sugar. Not completely attenuated, strange for a tripel. Very slick, alcoholic. Yeah - another tripel if you want;

NovaBirra propose une approche globale de la bière. Zythologie et brassage sont des passions qu’ils font partager. Je ne peux que saluer cette philosophie. La bière n’est pas qu’une boisson. C’est tout à la fois des traditions, des terroirs, des hommes et de femmes.... Et elle ne prend toute sa dimension que dans le partage et dans la communauté qui en découle. De cette expérience, 3 bières sont nées, brassées par De Ranke et dont fait partie la Big Nose qui titre à 9 % Abv et qui présente une recette composée de 3 malts et 3 houblons. Sa robe est d’un bel ambré et son effervescence intense permet de la napper d’une belle mousse blanc crème, dense, d’environ 1 cm. Le nez se porte sur des arômes de caramel, de pin et de pamplemousse. A la dégustation, la première sensation est douce, sur l’orange, le malt avec une pointe de résineux. La suite est tout simplement classieux. La base se fait sur des arômes marqués de whisky, et complétée par des notes de chêne, de fumé, de caramel et d’oranges confites. L’amertume est juste et la corpulence très bonne. Une légère astringence est toutefois à noter sur le final. En conclusion, classieux, est réellement le terme caractérisant cette bière. Son caractère et son élégance en font une bière d’une très belle prestance qui se mariera à merveille avec un magret de canard.

Bottle. Orange golden color. Aroma of malt, yeast, ester and grain. Sweet taste of yeast, grainy malt, esters and some subtle bitter hop. Very standard and unoriginal.

Hazy orange amber colour, small and stable frothy off-white head, fair lacing. Aroma fruity, sweet apple, plum, caramel, hay, light citrus. Taste is light heavy sweet and medium bitter, at first malty, toffee, followed by ripe fruit, spicy and alcohol notes, with long duration. Full-bodied, oily to creamy texture, soft carbonation, aftertaste is sweetbitter, fruity and spicy, alcohol present but in a mild manner. Needs some time to develop its potential but than you get a complex, elegant and well-balanced strong ale, very good.
