Don De Dieu (Gift Of God)



Don De Dieu (Gift of God): Triple Wheat Ale, 9% ABV, 1pint 9.4 oz

When you first pour this beer you will notice the traditional hay color of a triple, along with cloudy appearance of all wheat beers. The aroma is spectacular, as you can almost taste the sugar through your nose. As I drink I find that this triple wheat ale is truly a treat to my palate. It has a fruity malt taste, followed by the unmistakable taste of yeast presence, along with a smooth mouth fill. I am amazed that with a 9% ABV that I can’t taste any trace of alcohol.

It is funny that Triple Belgians always remind me of sitting down to a nice big bowl of Frosted Flakes. This beer is that sweet and not for those that prefer hops over malt.

This beer is truly worth its being corked and not capped.
