Review: 2 Unibroues in a row. It must be your lucky day, right? The Trois Pistoles is a del dlody brown color (surprise surprise). It hints at a deep aroma with some citrus notes. The mouth feel is thin with a little bit of tingly carbonation, but the flavor is smooth and sweet with just enough hops to balance the malt, but not overpower it. The citrus aroma I mentioned is much more apparent in the flavor. For a dark beer, it's a bit surprising that I'd compare this beer to a Belgian single with a deeper malt flavor. The finish is alcoholic with again some citrus notes. All in all pretty damn tasty.
