NovaBirra et Wave Distil proposent une série de bières originales à la croisée de leurs univers respectifs. Strabismus est le résultat d'un assemblage de Big Nose vieillie en fûts de whisky August 17th. Pour cet assemblage particulier, les fûts choisis permettent à cette bière triple d’exprimer une structure gustative complexe où se mêlent les notes boisées et oxydatives.

Bouteille 50cl de Malt Attacks.
Dorée-orange, col fin blanc.
Arôme est plaisant avec de fines effluves de barrique, sucre résiduel caramélisé laissant une fine couche rappelant un vin oxydé.
Palais est malté sur une approche bien belge triple, retrouve un côté boisé whisky plaisant, note douce de sucre de cane, un peu oxydé avec un fini un peu Porto-Jerez Oloroso que whisky. Riche et complexe.

Hazy ámber colour, moderate sized ecru-like off-white head; aroma of whisky, biscuits, caramel and dried apricot; taste has the same notes with intensive alcohol; first: it is very far from a typical tripel; second: this barrel-aging like whiskyness is not really fits to the style; third: it does not have enough body to this high ABV...
