Little hazy blond to orange beer, creamy off-white head, stable, adhesive, leaving some lacing in the glass. Aroma: very sweet and sugary, lots of strawberry candy (the soft strawberry shaped big gums), not much else. MF: soft carbon, medium body. Taste: pretty sweet and sugary start, lots of raspberry candy flavour. Aftertaste: candy, artificial raspberry, little bitter, yeasty touch. Meh.

Une chose est certaine, la brasserie Scassenes (ancienement Ecaussines) joue à fond la carte du Marketing. Mais quand le "claim" (je m’excuse pour l’anglicisme, mais c’est le terme maketing d’usage) affiché est "3 bières, une révolution", encore faut il que la bière soit à la hauteur (je passe sur l’incongruité du lien entre révolution belge de 1830 et création brassicole...). La loi est donc la version triple des 3 bières de la gamme 1830 lancée en 2015. En verre, celle-ci est d’une couleur jaune paille,limpide et parée d’une mousse blanche d’un cm d’épasseur. Le nez est très classique pour une triple. avec des notes de citron et de céréales. En atttaque, les arômes sont ceux du malt, du citron quelques peu épicés avec des notes de coriandre. Nous sommes encore sur un strict classicisme. A partir de ce moment la dégustation devient cependant déroutante. L’amertume, qui gagne alors en puissance est épicée avec des notes très métaliques. L’ensemble est très déséquilibré et pas réellement agréable. Le final renforce encore cette impression avec des arômes fortement poivrés et une présence trop marquée de l’alcool. Le plaisir n’est en conclusion pas au rendez vous, la révolution reste uniquement au niveau du marketing malheureusement....
