La Résolution 2015 – Unibroue

by Mike

From Chambly Quebec’s Unibroue comes the “La Résolution 2015″ a Belgian Strong Dark Ale.  The beer pours a deep brown colour with a beige head.  The aroma consists of toffee, sweetness, dark fruits and gingerbread.  The flavour is of toffee, dark fruits, anise, roasted malts, caramel, gingerbread with a sweet finish.  The alcohol content comes in at 10% with an IBU of 21.5.  I haven’t had a Unibroue beer for a while and this was the right one to come back to!  The flavour was great and really works in the winter months.

Commercial Description:  La Résolution is a dark ale with spicy character inspired by a recipe our brewmaster Jerry Vietz created for his friends.  At 10% alcohol, its spicy caramel aroma evolves on the palate into pleasant and complex notes of toffee with reminiscence of a tasty gingerbread.  The perfect balance between spicy, caramel and roasted malt flavours is complemented by a nice roundness and persistent finish.
