Delirium Tremens
Brouwerij Huyghe

Bottle 0.33L.
Clear golden body with an average, frothy, white head, mostly diminishing with some lacing; high densizty of medium-sized particles.
Aroma is dominated by alcohol and sipces; hoppy (grass) character is also present.
Moderate sweet flavour with moderate-to-hevy bitterness in the finish.
Medium body with an oily texture; soft carbonation; moderate alcoholic warming in the finish.

Pours yellow golden color with dense foamy head. Smells and tastes like sweet banana, clove spice, rich wheaty malts, black pepper, some apple, pear, and floral earthy herbal grassy hops. Feels medium plus bodied. Real nice Belgian strong golden ale.

 

Pours almost like a pilsner. Bright gold with bubbles ascending to the surface. Smells of sweet bread, bananas, and hint of flowers? Upfront taste of spice, citrus and yeast but very balanced. Used to love Duvel but this is much smoother IMO. This is not as bitter on the finish. Could drink this anytime of year!

 

 

 

 

Nice mild belgian.. subtle

Hazy yellow color, a huge white head. Yeasty aroma of fruits and spices. Same notes in pa erfectly balanced taste. Moderate hoppy bitterness in finish and aftertaste. Very easy to drink, although it has 8,5% ABV. Great brew.

 

I've heard about this beer for a long time, finally getting to try it. Popped the cork and poured into a 16-oz glass

Look: opaque gold with a head that stays around, thick lacing as well

Smell: Bananas, spices, fresh bread.

Taste: Follows the smell; Bananas, spices, bread sweetness, a bit of warming alcohol at the end but not overwhelming.

Feel: Kind of thin, not what I was expecting. Minimal carbonation that goes down easy.

Overall: Very good, I think it lived up to the hype! Almost like liquid banana bread, and the high ABV hides itself well. It's easy to drink, so be careful and enjoy!

Pours a clear golden yellow with a medium to small head that goes to lacing. The aroma is tropical fruit with a hint of banana and spice, but more orange than anything. The taste is the same with nice carbonation. Everyone I've talked to says how good this beer is, so I decided to try it. I've had this in the fridge for a while. Doesn't taste like an 8.5 ABV so be careful.

On tap at Burp Castle in Manhattan, NY.

This one pours a clear straw yellow, with a tight white head, and lots of lacing.

This smells like honey, clove, pear, bubblegum, banana, and peppery spice.

This is super pleasant – not too sweet, although it’s got a nice slightly cookie-like and crackery malt character. There’s some fruitiness, mainly pear and banana, and a nice spicy and slightly herbal dry finish.

This is well and highly carbonated, but it feels soft on the palate, lending a nice drinkability.

I’m honestly shocked that I’m only now just trying this classic.

 

From a can
Clear straw, white head, retention is wanting, thin rings of lace
Aromas of pear, honey, slight sweet spice
Pears, honey, cloves and cinnamon, a little bit of bread crust flavor, a hint of ginger as it warms
Light bodied, could use a bit more carbonation, no hint of alcohol, goes down really easy
Pretty good, but I remember it being a bit more impressive when I've had it from a bottle. Belgians lose something in a can.

 

Pours a very slightly hazy golden colour, with a tight white head that settles to a couple of millimetres. On the nose, bananary Belgian yeast funk. Overwhelming taste of strawberry on the tongue, with a hoppy bitterness following initial sweetness. Finishes spicy and sweet, with a definite hint of the ABV.

 

500 ml can poured into a goblet.

L: Brilliant gold, stark-white head, creamy foam is fairly persistent, some lacing.
S: Cracker malt clears out for spicy yeast and hop aromas.
T: Dry and spicy, cracker malt and hints of bubblegum but no sweetness, medium bitterness, alcohol is subdued.
F: Light bodied with high-ish but delicate carbonation, clean finish with a bit of warmth.
O: Refined and refreshing.
