Unibroue's La Fin Du Monde -- Three Beers
Unfiltered. So, you know, good. But unlike most unfiltered beers that just end tasting only like fruit, this managed to maintain the generic fruit taste, on top of a mild yeast-based sweetness, on top of another sweetness. I'm not sure if it was malt, or somehow more of the yeast taste itself instead of whatever yeast-leavings/fruit-based-additions most other unfiltered beers had, but, it had something else.
The only thing is, it still didn't wow me. I enjoy an unfiltered, but, I don't find there to be as much range of taste as there is in other genres. To me, they seem to come off just like light beers that actually taste good, instead of somehow within the panoply of delicious, strong, alt-beers. Otherwise, it would be a 4.
Also, the head was enjoyably stable (more like an espresso crema than a swath of bubbles), and the body was a little thicker than most of its style. But still. A head and a body don't make up for a seeming genericness.
Below are the labels. I had to edit the back label a bunch to get it even close to readable. If you can, great. If you can't... go buy one.
