Dieu du Ciel Péché Mortel (Bottle) 9,5%It poured a pitch black liquid with a small light brown foam that left some lacing.
It had a strong smell of primarily coffee, but also chocolate, toffee and an interesting smell that I couldn't quite distinguish, probably related to the added coffee.
The mouth feel was smooth and creamy with a thick body and medium bitterness. The bitterness was more of a coffee and dark chocolate bitterness then a hoppy bitterness. It had a strong taste of coffee but also chocolate, coconut and something burned and roasted.
A fantastic beer! It felt complex and interesting to drink, perfect to sit and sip at for a while. I'm not a big fan of coffee and don't normally drink it, but this was really nice. Definitely recommended and at this price it's an absolute steal. Just as with Rigor Mortis I hope to get a couple of extra bottles.
Total: 4,3/5
Couldn't agree more. Great stuff.
ReplyDeleteWow. I actually saw this beer at a Whole Foods here in New Jersey! I passed it up, but I noticed it because of the label. I'm quite sure I'll buy it next time as it sounds incredible. (I'm on a bit of a coffee beer kick right now too!)
ReplyDeleteHey Scott. Yeah this is definitely a beer worth buying. It's cheap and still excellent, specially if you like coffee. I personally don't drink coffee and I still enjoyed this :)
