I am not a big beer drinker but when I do this is the stuff I get. Not widely available in the US but is to a small degree. I drank some on election night since its name is fitting these days. Below is a writeup on it.
In February 1994, after 18 months of research, Unibroue launched La Fin du Monde (the end of the world). It is a 9 percent alcohol, triple fermentation beer. This type of beer was originally developed by the monks of the Middle Ages to be served on special occasions. La Fin du Monde is a deluxe beer made by triple fermentation and a unique way of straining the yeast. This method produces an unexpectedly subtle flavour. With its champagne-like effervescence, it has a vigourous presence in the mouth, which accentuates its strong personality. Slightly tart, with the balanced flavours of wild spices, malt and hops, it belongs to the class of great Trappist beers and, in this regard, is a North American first. At meals, it can replace white or red wines and enhances the flavour of most dishes. This beer is brewed to honour of the great explorers, who believed they had reached the end of the world when they discovered America.

Below is a writeup on it. I agree, the last time out, I should have bought some of that Blue Moon Belgian White, I like that and I will be on the lookout for this beer or ale you recommend. The joke in college was always "what's the best beer?" "whatever's on special!" as a friend of mine would always blend those cheap buys with lemon juice. But I've always been a bit more discerning in my choices because I was in the fraternity, I Tappa Kegga.
Unibroue brews excellent Belgian and Trappist style ales. They are located in Canada, hence the map on the ‘La Fin’ lable. Their ‘Maudite’ is my favorite. Belgians are a whole other catagory and light years different pale ales. If you enjoy La Fin, give Brewery Ommagong a try...they are located in Cooperstown NY near the Baseball Hall of Fame. They make a Belgian Abbey style ale that is fantastic.
