La Chouape 1881: not an easy drinking beer

La Chouape 1881 (6.7% ABV)
La Chouape, Lac-St-Jean, QC, Canada

This is a new brewer to me; apparently they have other beers which will be available here soon.

1881 is, basically, a blonde ale, but it pours almost red, nearly no head. Light carbonation. Loads of yeast in the nose.

Very thin, sharp-tasting beer, which is harsh at the swallow. Some citrus notes but overpowered by hop bitterness and that harsh jolt. Strong alcohol taste considering the strength.

    Even the impossible can be found on eBay, if you are patient in your searching. Try searching for Russian River (you'll need to narrow down by beer name, ex. Pliny, Damnation, Temptation), Black Albert, or any of the BIG beers. Don't overlook eBay's Belgium Beer results either...
