Unibroue's Raftman

Alright, I saved what I hoped would be the best of the Unibroue variety pack for last. Let's see if they can screw up an amber.

Pours an unfiltered amber with a tan head. So far so good, although the head is probably too big.

Damnit. It has that Belgian yeast smell. Goddamnit. Smells more yeasty and like old fruit than malty and slightly hoppy, like an amber should.

I guess Unibroue doesn't understand that amber is a style, not just a color. Tastes like a weak trippel. With the same odd twangy aftertaste that the Noire had.

Lesson learned. No more Unibroue, ever.
