I made watching the Villanova/Pitt thriller last night a little better by starting off the second half with a bottle of Delirium Nocturnum. The beer tasted very sweet. I was thinking raisins and cherries. I don't know if the beer is that good, or I enjoy the little pink elephants that much. Anyone have it, have thoughts on it?
I followed up the Delirium with a couple of Resurrections. Again, it isn't my favorite, but it is a good beer, so I will drink it.

The Delirium Tremens was my TRUE "gateway" beer into Belgians. The Nocturnum... not bad, but it's not the Tremens. Both are definitely waaay sweet though.
ReplyDeleteThe Delirium Tremens is a GREAT beer for getting that "everyday, fizzy yellow, bland beer lover" onto the right path.... I'm 5 for 5 so far, thanks to Max's on Broadway and Jack's Bistro. Both have Delirium Tremens available and all 5 times, I've convinced 5 friends that Belgian beer IS 100x better than the poo poo they've been drinking.
So props to Brouwerij Huyghe.
They were out of Tremens. It was what I originally wanted. Nocturnum took its place
