MONTREAL, QC – Dieu du Ciel! has launched a new series of unique blended beers that will be available exclusively at the DDC brewpub in Montreal.
Named Symbiose, the series will feature beers created by blending freshly brewed beer with older beer aged in oak barrels for various lengths of time.
For Symbiose #1, a newly brewed sour wheat beer made with cherries and fermented with a mixed yeast culture was blended with an ale aged for 18 months in a bourbon barrel.
Symbiose #1 is on tap now at the Dieu du Ciel! brewpub, and is strictly limited to 400 litres.

- Greg C. is drinking a Trappist Holiday Ale by Spencer Brewery at King & Dufferin1+ year old bottle. Aroma of port and spice, notes that follow in the flavour plus cherry & menthol. Some booze heat despite the age. Nice.
- Greg C. is drinking an Oude Geuze (Vieille) by Brouwerij Oud Beersel at King & DufferinNot as lip-puckeringly sour or mind-bendingly complex as some lambics, but still an old fave that I always enjoy.
- Greg C. is drinking a No Love Lost Sour Cherry Saison by Mascot Brewery at King & DufferinDelivers what the name promises - a rather good Saison laced with sour cherry that is unmistakably present but not overpowering.
- Greg C. is drinking a Coffee Oatmeal Stout by Bellwoods Brewery at King & DufferinSurprisingly good for a 20-month-old bottle. Coffee is still nice & punchy, good notes of chocolate, oats & nuts in the background.
- Greg C. is drinking a Dueces by Mascot Brewery at King & DufferinPretty much a textbook IIPA with no especially distinctive qualities. Finish is a bit harsh, but could be evidence of the high abv. It’s OK.
