This Belgian Noël takes it’s name from Jan Baptista van Helmont (1579-1644), the Flemish chemist and physician who first discovered CO and coined the word “gas” by recognizing the existence of gases distinct from air. This energy luminary was the founder of pneumatic chemistry and also the first to bridge alchemy and early chemistry. Hats off to the man behind the bubble. Probst and Happy Holidays!

Courtesy of Degarth. Pours mildly hazy gold with thin white head. The aroma is big bold sweetness, candi sugar, mildly roasty malts, some apricot like fruitiness and a growing hotness with a deeper draw. The taste is slick and sweet to start with nice lightly roasted malts. This is good and yummy. I love how the malts show up amongst the sweet Belgian candi sugar and mild blended smoothed out spice notes.

My sample fizzed from here to the Pole of Inaccessibility, so have a big and thirsty towel handy when you crack a bomber. Pours a barely translucent apricot with a rather thick, if effervescent, pale buff head. Aroma has firm fruity and yeasty notes with hints of malt and butterscotch. Fruity flavor has notes of banana, pear and mango; and has yeasty and malty underpinnings plus a snippet of butterscotch. Texture is fairly thick, and strong fizz makes you feel it all the way down the pipes. This one is a real gasser!

March Tasting: There was a 2008 in small print on the bottom corner of the label, so I'm going to assume it's been laid down for a while. Vibrant looking beer with a heavy aroma. Overly sweet and only about 6 ounces were all I wanted to handle. It was fairly smooth, but the cloying, sticky sweetness quickly became unwanted.
