Unibroue La Fin Du Monde Golden Tripel Ale

When Michael Stipe penned the words “The End of the World”, I’m sure we wasn’t talking about the beer were’s taking on today, Unibroue’s La Fin Du Monde, a Golden Tripel Ale.

Unibroue has been a fickle brew for us here at Massive Beer Reviews, being not most consistent brewery ….. while in general we like almost all their offerings, from year to year they can sometimes be good, sometimes be great, and sometimes be less than stellar.

Will this iteration of La Fin Du Monde have us feeling like Shiny Happy People or make us scream The End of the World as We Know it?

Watch on to find out!

Oskar Blues Old Chub Scotch Ale

Today on Massive Beer Reviews we’re reviewing a beer that comes in a can, Oskar Blues Old Chub Scotch Ale.

Can’s, more often that not, are viewed as a sign of meritocracy through the craft beer circles, but with what seems like more and more companies canning up higher end offerings that notion seems to be falling by the wayside.

Will Old Chub help dispel this old school mentality and offer us up a Scotch Ale worthy of praise?

Watch on to find out!
