Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Quis Ut Deus
◎ Appearance
Pale golden hue with bright, luminous clarity and fine, persistent carbonation. The head builds quickly and clings to the glass in delicate lacework, testament to the beer's gentle effervescence and clean fermentation. A visual study in elegance—transparent and inviting without heaviness.
◌ Aroma
Yeast dominates the nose with classic Belgian phenolics—white pepper and subtle clove notes mingle with stone fruit esters suggesting ripe pear and subtle orchard notes. Beneath lies a whisper of honey and delicate floral character, with just enough bready, grainy malt to ground the aromatic profile without asserting dominance.
◐ Taste
The palate enters clean and smooth, with the yeast-driven spice and fruity character asserting themselves immediately. Mid-palate carries a lightly honeyed sweetness balanced by the gentle bitterness (30 IBU) and a crisp, dry undercurrent that prevents any cloying sensation. The 8.5% alcohol adds warmth and subtle booziness without roughness, allowing the delicate flavors to remain in focus.
◑ Finish
The finish is decidedly dry with a lingering peppery, yeasty character that fades cleanly. A light honeyed sweetness persists briefly before yielding to a crisp, refreshing aftertaste that invites another sip.

Warmer than most — 12–14°C. The fruity esters, spice and warming alcohol need room to breathe.
The wide mouth and heavy base promote head formation and channel rich aromatics toward the nose. Traditional for Belgian strong ales.
