Duchesse de Bourgogne

Another beer day.  I usually don't do much beer, but at holiday get-togethers beer works well.  I also can't say enough about the nice selection of the large Belgians available at Costco.

This is a nice sour. Lots of nice dark fruit, cherry, raspberry and such.  It also was a cask matured variety, so you have the nice oaky caramels and tannin.  Maybe this is a little sweet.  Maybe a little tart as well.  I'll allow it.  Rich, thick, and a great mouthfeel with the foamy head.  Great for splitting and sharing at a gathering when you only want to have a little bit. Too rich to just pound out the whole 750ml, but you'll notice that pounding any drink, especially beer, is not exactly in my wheelhouse.

Cheers,
Andy
