Belgian-Style Imperial Wheat Ale
This sweet and full-bodied white beer packs a serious punch with the taste of spices, malt, fruit and yeast.
Every sip is a memorable moment, like the historic day when French explorers met with the First Nations people who came out to greet the Don de Dieu, the ship carrying Samuel de Champlain.

Triple wheat ale aux limites de l'équilibre entre douceur et équilibre cette Don de Dieu se démarque par un final flamboyant et superbement enlevé. Belle complexité sur les arômes également avec une levure qui nous fait particulièrement penser aux levures belges. Le visuel se porte sur un blond doré voilé avec une forte effervescence et une mousse blanc cassé généreuse (3 cm d'épaisseur). Le nez est sur les céréales (blé, froment), les fruits (banane, citron, pomme) et de légères épices. L'attaque, légèrement acidulée est sur un équilibre ténu mais bon entre douceur et alcool. Les arômes, appréciables sont sur les céréales, la pomme, la poire, la banane, l'ananas avec une pointe d'épices. Une petite astringence pas désagréable est présente. Grosse crainte en seconde bouche où l'alcool se met en retrait pour laisser la douceur l'emporter et empâter l'ensemble. Mais c'est pour mieux rebondir, à la fois sur l'arrière bouche où l'alcool donne un bon tonus, mais surtout sur le final où l'alcool (9%) permet de tonifier notre triple et de terminer cette dégustation parfaitement. Mais avant tout j'aime cette variation autour d'une triple belge bien pensé et pas stéréotypé.

Light orange color, no head. Plumaroma. Alcoholic plum flavor, like a diluted Slibovitz. Thin to medium bodied. Must be hopped, but a really can’t taste it. Sweetish and fruity: I also tasted pineapple. A bit disappointing.

341ml bottle. Slightly cloudy, amber colour with average, fluffy, moderately lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Sweet-ish, biscuity, minimally bready, caramel and wheat malty and yeasty fruity aroma, notes of dried fruit, apricot, peach, yellow apple, a touch of raisin. Taste is sweet, caramel and minimally wheaty malty, fruity, slightly yeasty spicy, notes of yellow apple, hints of peach and apricot, dried yellow stone fruit, a touch of raisin, date, fig, clove overtones; creamy texture, very smooth, soft and silky palate. Superbly balanced, clean but not undercomplex. Very good.

341ml bottle from Abeervinum, Rimini, Italy. Pours dark orange, hazy, with limited and evaporating foam. Aroma is malty, caramel. Body is dense but very carbonated. Some alcoholic feeling. Taste is pretty sweet, with limited bitterness. Finish is fairly long.

17th Sep 2018; monthly beer share in Chez Sophie, Shrewsbury, usual five suspects in attendance. Cork and caged 750ml bottle, cheers to me for sharing such a lovely beer! Light mist in the golden body, snow white crown. Spicy and wheaty, liked it a lot; a wheat triple isn't something you come across too often, really enjoyed this (wish I'd kept the bottle at home and drank it all myself to be honest).

Bottle @ Malt & Mold sampling. Pours cloudy dull yellow with small foamy whitish head, earthy aroma with dough-coriander-nutmeg, high carbonation, mildly bitter earthy taste with a bit of salt, smooth body, long medium bitter spicy finish. Almost like a winter warmer.
