Delirium Tremens

Delirium Tremens
Belgian Strong Pale Ale
8.5 % ABV
Melle, Belgium
Named Best Beer in the World at 1998 World Beer Championships (Chicago, IL)
 Ranked Number One in.. 50 Greatest Beers in the World
 
Big bubbly head. Quite carbonated.
Smells like bananas and tropical fruit flavored bubblegum.
Tastes like bananas, apples, pears and  yeast.
A slight caramel taste is there but obviously less so than the darker beers.
I don't really dig the golden stuff much. I do not care for the Pale.
So this, like most of them just isn't my thing.
However it is definitely good and very flavorful.
Just not necessarily flavors I typically seek out.
Will re-visit in the future.
