Beer of the Week: Grimbergen Double Ambree

Beer score: 5.8

Company: Grimbergen
ABV: 6.5
IBU: 22

This has got to be one of the sweetest beers I've ever tasted. That doesn't mean the taste is bad, but it's difficult to get to that taste through all the sweetness. This was so sweet, I couldn't finish a whole bottle (but in fairness, it was a big bottle).

As for pouring, it has a nice, light golden color while giving off smells of caramel and fruitiness.

Going down, there's some of that caramel and fruit flavoring, but again, the sweetness here is just overpowering. It also leaves behind a strong alcohol aftertaste.

Only truly experienced beer tasters should even thing about trying this. Worth it for when you are in the mood for something unique.
