Notes: The beer pours dark yellow, bordering on amber, with a crisp shine to it. Aromas of bread dough, freshly cut lemon and a touch of biscuit drift over the fluffy white head.

Notes: One of our boldest, most dynamic beers, Cuvee de Tetreault expresses powerful vinous forward flavors of black currant, sour cherry, and cabernet fruit supplemented by hints of tobacco, vanilla, and a fleeting, light roast. An underlying tannic structure from the whole cabernet grapes adds complexity and balance to the fruitiness and acidity.(11%)
