À Tout le Monde by Unibroue is a Saison and is being evaluated as a Saison (category 25B in the 2015 BJCP Beer Style Guidelines). Saisons are typically well-carbonated, well-attenuated beers with a complex balance between phenolics, esters and hops. À Tout le Monde is produced in collaboration with Megadeth, one of the “Big Four” American thrash metal bands.
À Tout le Monde pours golden with a big mousse-like white head and excellent clarity. The aroma is moderate perfume-like and floral hops with light rose-like esters and light peppery phenolics. The body is medium with an appropriately moderately high carbonation. The flavor is moderate peppery phenolics with light herbal hops and a hint of toasty malt. The beer finishes with a moderate-light bitterness, moderate peppery phenolics above a light toasty malt and a refreshing carbonic bite.
À Tout le Monde is on the low end of the gravity range of the style fitting into the “table” sub-style at 4.5 percent ABV. Regardless, this Saison is very well made and hits all of the key elements of the style. À votre santé!
