The Bush (Dubuisson) Prestige, initially Bush Amber initially was made in stainless steel and now replaced by maturation in oak barrels for a period of 6 months. At bottling, a small amount of sugar and yeast are added to the beer, which when placed in a hot chamber, develop a fermentation in the bottle giving it a high natural alcohol of 13%. Maturing in oak, allows the taster to find aromas and tannins for decades to delight the most demanding palates. There are profound aromas of whiskey and brandy from the oak ageing in exceptional roundness. The taste is powerful, rich and aromatic, an exclusive bottle and a limited form of Prestige beer.

From the 750 ml bottle in a snifter. This nice Belgian pours a lightly
murky burnt auburn with a nice head of white foam that settles to a
thick ring, thin wafting dusty layer, and sports some faint lacing. Nose of
brandy, whiskey, oak, raisin, date, phenol spiciness, and candy sugars
dashed with vanilla. Flavors surpass the nose with whiskey, oak, brandy,
subtle vanilla, rum raisin, spicy phenol notes, white pepper, faint tobacco,
and candy sugars. Mouth feel is medium, smooth, warming, faint carbonation,
and a warming lightly sweet and spicy finish.

Overall, a fantastic brew for Valentines Day----Thanks to the Little Lady!

Cheers
