The Mc Chouffe is an unfiltered dark beer (such as scotch).
Full of character, Mc CHOUFFE delights lovers of dark beer all over the world. Its distinctive flavour, its dark ruby colour and its fine creamy head make it a unique beer. Mc CHOUFFE is also characterised by its spicy aniseed and liquorice flavours, superbly complemented by full-bodied caramel notes. Despite its robustness, Mc CHOUFFE is surprisingly smooth. It even reveals delicious fruity notes, especially pear, as well as a very slight hint of bitterness at the end of the palate. With its 8% alcohol content, like LA CHOUFFE, Mc CHOUFFE is appreciated with the same lightness as its big blond sister.

Shared bottle. Pours a dark amber color with an off-white head. Mild aroma, with some malt, spice and yeast. Taste is malt, alcohol, spice, yeast, dark fruits. Finish is a little boozy.

0,75L pullo, BBE 20.1.2014. Punertavanruskea olut kohtalaisella, aavistuksen beigeen vivahtavalla valkoisella vaahdolla, jota jää vajaan sentin kerros pitkäksi aikaa oluen pinnalle. Tuoksu maltainen ja makean karamellinen, hieman hedelmäinen/marjainen sekä aavistuksen alkoholinen. Maku pehmeän karamellisen maltainen, aavistuksen tumman hedelmäinen ja loppupuoleltaan hieman mausteinen. Keskitäyteläinen suutuntuma, hiilihappoinen. Hieman turhan yksiulotteinen kokonaisuus.

Monumentális, kávé színű, nagyon tartós habbal rendelkezik. Sötétbarna, majdnem fekete színű. Illata jellegzetes belga barna sörös, némi pörkölt aromával. Íze alkoholos, pörkölt malátás, kissé pezsgős érzetű. Nem érzem a belga barnákra jellemző ízvilágot, az aromákat külön-külön érezni, nincs összhang. Az alkoholt sem sikerült elrejteni, nagyon markánsan jelen van. Az egésznek kiforratlan hatása van, mintha nem ért volna eleget ez a sör. A magas alkohol ellenére nem sikerült igazán testet adni neki. Utóíze jellegtelen szinte csak a pörkölt jelleg marad meg.

Review based on the BJCP2015 guidelines (style 26D). Bottle 33 cl - Batch L30407. AROMA: predominant alcohol aroma with solvent notes that evolve into a peppery quality, mixed with a moderate caramel-like malt presence. some faint bready-toasty note. APPEARANCE: deep amber color with red highlights and clear. large, moussy, tanned head with moderate persistance. TASTE: moderate malty caramel-like flavor with a peppery alcohol presence. some faint bready-tosty notes. fruitiness imperceptible. medium-low to low bitterness with an almost dry finish. PALATE: high carbonation with a medium-low body. some alcohol warmth. OVERALL: a belgian dark strong ale not very much complex.
