Label Reads: "Blanche de Chambly is a beer containing a deposit of fresh yeast: the result of refermentation occurring in the bottle. This beer is only partially filtered to enable it to retain the benefits of its best ingredients. Its slightly blurry appearance is characteristic of white-beer recipes dating back to the Middle Ages".

Handwritten notes: The thing I've learned throughout this mess is that certain beer companies have shticks. Case in point - I tried Sam Adams White and, sure enough, there was a mess o' hops in there. Now, this beer is exactly what I expected after Trois Pistoles and Maudite and Fin du Monde. That is, this is a butter-tart weiss. Not a laundry detergent weiss, and not a hoppy weiss, but the old mincemeat butter tarts. It's not bad, but I'm just not the kind of dude who likes to get what he expected.
