Two New Bottled Beers Coming From Dieu Du Ciel

Post by spinrsx »

looking forward to these

'MONTREAL, QC – Quebec beer news website Bières et Plaisirs reports that Dieu du Ciel! will soon be releasing two beers in bottles that were previously available exclusively on draught, and primarily at their brewpub location.

A new addition to the year-round bottled line-up is Pénombre, a Black IPA that was one of the first beers of its style to be made in Quebec when first released at the DDC! brewpub in 2008.

Following in November will be Grande Noirceur, a 9% abv Imperial Stout debuted on draught in 2004. This will be part of Dieu du Ciel!’s new “Momentum” series of limited edition bottled beers, and will be available at retail outlets in Quebec while supplies last'

Always nice to credit/link where you cut & paste stuff from, folks:

(Yes, in this case, it's my site. But even when it's not, I always like seeing the sources of information like this getting some recognition.)

Struck me as odd as well. Doesn't she write right wing propaganda normally?

Thanks for the credit, the goal is to get the news out there, but always feels better when mentionning the source :)

I REALLY cant wait for the imperial stout. Had it at Mondial in 2011, and it was by best-of-show.

it's an excellent publication BTW Ian. I thoroughly enjoyed reading thru the latest edition while sitting at the bar at Benelux last Sunday sipping their Armada and Grisette.

I don't want this to come off as slagging anyone, but I find the overall quality of the writing of BetP much higher than TAPS. Be nice if it wasn't so PQ focused, but obviously I understand why.

I sometimes make a trip out to Brouehaha or BdT with the intention mostly of trying to scam my free BetP (picking up some tasty brews isn't the worst thing either!).

Anyway, all that to say, "job well done, Ian and compagnie."

Anyone know of any plans to get either of these into Ontario? Private orders?

I plan on driving across the bridge and purchasing them and bringing them back to Ontario.

If you need any let me know. Lot's of room in my car.
