Brasserie Dubuisson Scaldis Noël Belgian Strong Dark Ale / 12% ABV / 21 IBU / 360 CAL / Pipaix, Wallonie / The Scaldis Noël derives much of its rounded character from the use of roast caramel malts. The hops are carefully balanced with these, added in just the right proportions to develops its subtle hop aroma. There is also a robust fruity character, with the overall taste pleasingly consistent. 2. Brouwerij De Halve Maan Straffe Hendrik Brugs Tripel Bier 9° Belgian Tripel / 9% ABV / 35 IBU / 270 CAL / Bruges, Vlaanderen / Straffe Hendrik is a Bitter Tripel Ale of 9% abv. The beer was originally from Bruges and brewed in Bruges by brewery De Halve Maan. 3. Brouwerij De Halve Maan Brugse Zot Belgian Blonde / 6% ABV / 23 IBU / 180 CAL / Bruges, Vlaanderen / Brugse Zot is a goldenblond beer with a rich froth and a fruity flavouring. The beer is brewed with four different kinds of malt and two aromatic varieties of hop which give the beer its unique taste. With an alcochol degrees proof of 6 % Vol it is a well balanced, easy drinking beer with character. Brugse Zot is a natural beer born out of a selection of only the best ingredients. Thanks to the refermentation in the bottle, the beer has a longer natural life. 4. Brasserie Dubuisson Bush Blonde Triple Belgian Strong Golden Ale / 10.5% ABV / 21 IBU / 315 CAL / Pipaix, Wallonie / In this tripel, the in-bottle re-fermentation has given an intense effervescence to the aromas of the Bush Blonde. The re-fermentation has also sympathetically developed the Blonde's well-rounded, tender character. 5. Delirium - Huyghe Delirium Tremens Belgian Strong Golden Ale / 8.5% ABV / 24 IBU / 255 CAL / Melle, Vlaanderen / The allusion to pink elephants and the choice of names is not due to chance. With a particular character, the unique taste results from triple fermentation and the use of three different yeast strains. Sweet, biscuit malt backbone, supported by pleasant warmth and spice, finishes well rounded, floral, and dry. Color and Sight: Pale blond, the fine and regular sparkle creates a nice, stable foam head. Scent: Slightly malty, heavy touch of alcohol, spicy. Taste: A good shot of alcohol ignites in the mouth, as it were, which really warms the tongue and palate. The taste is also characterized by its roundness. The finish is strong, long and dry bitter. 6. Delirium - Huyghe Delirium Red Fruit Beer / 8% ABV / 10 IBU / 240 CAL / Melle, Vlaanderen / Colour and sight: Deep dark red colour, with a light pink, compact and lacing head. Scent: Soft fruity aroma, with hints of almond and mildly sour cherries. Flavour: Sweet and fruity, with a nice balance between sweet and sour. An excellent dessert beer. 7. Delirium - Huyghe Delirium Nocturnum Belgian Strong Dark Ale / 8.5% ABV / 24 IBU / 255 CAL / Melle, Vlaanderen / Color and Sight: Dark Chocolate Brown with a compact foam, white-yellow, stable and creamy. Odor Touches of caramel, mocca and chocolate. Spices such as licorice and coriander are also present. Taste: Initially a very pleasant sensation in the mouth of alcohol and softness. It is followed by a growing bitterness, which comes partly from hops, but also from roasted malt and chocolate malt. Towards the end, pleasant balance between bitter, sour and sweet notes. 8. Delirium - Huyghe Deliria Belgian Strong Golden Ale / 8.5% ABV / 32 IBU / 255 CAL / Melle, Vlaanderen / Colour and appearance: a pale blonde colour and fine creamy-white head which clings to the glass. Flavour: A pleasant sparkling carbonate content produces a soft, full taste perception. The aroma is very balanced with a fruity, flowery background and an initial Chardonnay impression which evolves into a spicy, mild aroma of hops. Taste: Full-bodied and balanced with fruity tones of apple and Chardonnay grapes. Deliria has a fine, mild bitterness in its aftertaste and a splendid, round feel in the mouth which evolves well. Special beer brewed once a year to mark International Women's Day. 9. Brooklyn Cider House Bone Dry Cider - Traditional / 6.9% ABV / 150 IBU / 207 CAL / New Paltz, NY / 10.
