Brasserie Dubuisson Scaldis Caractère
What the brewers say
“Surprising aromas of ripe fruits including banana, touches of ‘cuberdon’ sweets, and caramel.”
What our panel thought
“Velvety mouthfeel and a luxurious malty quality in the flavor—caramel, biscuit, and toast. Smooth and estery with stone fruit, cherry, and raisin. Phenols balance nicely.”
What our editors thought
“Broadly fruity in the nose, with a Juicy Fruit gum vague tropical note. The sip relies on alcohol more than bitterness to balance the honey sweetness in the body, but flirts with a medicinal note. The bright carbonation helps cut it, but that alcohol lingers.”
