De Proef Signature Les Deux Brasseurs Ale (w/Jason Perkins)

I’ve been eyeing this for months and finally pulled the trigger on the $13.99 corked and caged bottle from Green’s on Buford, Atlanta, GA, USA.
Pours offers a cloudy, slightly watery looking light orange body and a decent rocky head. Some lacing but not the best I’ve seen. Appearance no the very best and I suspect that the beer will taste much better than it looks.
Nose has light acidity but seems quite sweet. The tastes reflect this. There’s a lot of fruity sweetness that comes with the mild grapefruit. There’s a surprising amount of sweetness here. The beer also begins to get slightly cloying which is about the last thing that I expected.
Yeasty and full in the mouth with even more sweetness.
I dunno, given the pedigree of this beer, and the price I was pretty disappointed in the final analysis. Lacked clean edges and ultimately came up short for me. The beer seemed a bit muddy and lacked significant definition.
