Duvel $15.49/4-pack 330 ml. bottles

Duvel - click to enlarge

Origin: Belgium.

Style: Belgian Strong Pale Ale.

Alcohol Content: 8.5%.

Beer Advocate Rating: A.

Brewery notes: "Duvel has the complexity and depth of an ale, with the ease and refreshing nature of a Pilsner. Duvel is fermented 3 times - twice at the brewery and the final time in the bottle." Jason Alström (Beer Advocate co-founder) notes: "A top shelf brew, this one does it for me and then some. Pretty much sex in a bottle and the devil told me to drink it. Duvel is close to dry champagne but so much more. Between the bitterness and the sheer crispness, this beer is what I expect from the Belgian strong pale ale style." Also available in a 750 ml. bottle for $8.89.

Unibroue La Fin Du Monde $10.99/4-pack 12 oz. bottles

Origin: Quebec.

Style: Tripel.

Alcohol Content: 9.0%.

Beer Advocate Rating: A.

First introduced in 1994, La Fin Du Monde ("The End of the World"), is blond and golden. The taste is descibed by the brewery as "Smooth, slightly tart with the balanced flavors of wild spices, malt and hops." The brewery notes go on: "Expect subtlety and strength, with a chorus of fruit, spice and hop notes. Pair with aged cheeses and succulent cuisine like scallops, filet mignon, duck confit and desserts." Also available in a 750 ml. bottle for $6.99.

Chimay Cinq Cents Triple White Label Trappist Ale $10.89/750 ml.

Origin: Belgium.

Style: Tripel.

Alcohol Content: 8.0%.

Beer Advocate Rating: A-.

Chimay notes: "This beer with its typical golden color, its slightly hazy appearance and its fine head is especially characterised by its aroma which results from an agreeable combination of fresh hops and yeast. The beer's flavor, as sensed in the mouth, comes from the smell of hops: above all it is the fruity notes of muscat and raisins that give this beer a particularly attractive aroma. The aroma complements the touch of bitterness. There is no acidity, but an after-bitterness which melts in the mouth. This top fermented Trappist beer, refermented in the bottle, is not pasteurized." The pictured 330 ml. (11 ounce) bottle is also available.

Unibroue Trois Pistoles Ale $10.99/4-pack 12 oz. bottles

Origin: Quebec.

Style: Belgian Strong Dark Ale.

Alcohol Content: 9.0%.

Beer Advocate Rating: A-.

Brewery description: "Trois Pistoles has a dark brown color topped with a rich foam mousse. Its slightly sweet taste is enhanced by accents of roasted malt, cocoa, ripe fruit and dark spices with a smooth finish like an old port." Beer Advocate Jason Alström says, "Another spectacular brew from one of the best breweries from Canada. Big enough to pair up with the most robust meals or just to sip the cold winter months away. Packed with complex flavors and deviously drinkable at 9% alcohol." The single 750 ml. bottle is also available for $6.99.

Chimay Grand Réserve Blue Label Trappist Ale $11.99/750 ml.

Origin: Belgium.

Style: Belgian Strong Dark Ale.

Alcohol Content: 9.0%.

Beer Advocate Rating: A-.

Chimay notes: "This is a beer whose fragrance of fresh yeast with a light, flowery rosy touch is especially pleasant. Its flavor, noticed when tasting it, only accentuates the pleasant sensations perceived in the aroma, while revealing a light but pleasant touch of roasted malt. This top fermented Trappist beer, refermented in the bottle, is not pasteurized." The pictured 330 ml. (11 ounce) bottle is $4.49.

Chimay Première Red Label Trappist Ale $10.49/750 ml.

Origin: Belgium.

Style: Dubbel.

Alcohol Content: 7.0%.

Beer Advocate Rating: A-.

Chimay notes: "it is noted for its coppery color which makes it particularly attractive. Topped with a creamy head, it gives off a light, fruity apricot aroma produced by the fermentation. The taste perceived in the mouth is a balance confirming the fruity nuances noticed in the fragrance. Its taste, which imparts a silky sensation to the tongue, is made refreshing by a light touch of bitterness. To the palate, the taster perceives a pleasant astringency which complements the flavor qualities of this beer very harmoniously. This top fermented Trappist beer, refermented in the bottle, is not pasteurized." The pictured 330 ml. (11 ounce) bottle is $3.99.
