DeuS - a remarkable beer
One of the great things about beer is that even great beers are usually not much more expensive than rubbish ones. You can get something remarkable for less than £2 a bottle. But there is one notable exception: DeuS. Can you believe it? I went and spent £13.99 on a loner bottle of beer.
Admittedly, that is a 75 cl bottle, and the cost reflects that that is a Belgian beer that’s soon after finished off in Champagne, with a secondary fermentation in
bottling and riddling. It’s incredible stuff, weighing in at 11.5% alcohol and with bags of flavour.
DeuS Brut des Flandres Cuvee Prestige 2007
Rich, complex and delicious, with heady aromas of vanilla, yeast, toast and whisky. The palate is rich and broad with sweet rich-textured toasty, bready flavours, as well as a savour, casky, vegetable soup and sherry edge. Some alcohol evident. Remarkable stuff, and great with food - particularly cheese. 9/10 (£13.99)
