Flat Earth Belgian Pale Ale
January 14th thru January 20th
Brewer's Description
Flat Earth Belgian-style Pale Ale is inspired by beers like Orval, Fat Tire and Rare Vos. It is made with imported Belgian malt and a Belgian yeast strain. Our Belgian pale ale has a sweet malt aroma with traces of orange, plum and pear. Its complex malt backbone of biscuit and hints of toast compliment the spiciness of the yeast.
Our Belgian-style ale is brewed to be enjoyed with a variety of foods, but try it with some steamed mussels, pizza, a rack of lamb, or even a char-grilled steak. Enjoy!
SRM - 14, ABV - 5.2%, IBU - 21

MantheDan says A bit phoamy.
January 19th, 2008
The ph is for phoney (a good Belgian Ale effort but certainly not the real deal) and the oamy is of course for foamy (when I poured it in my glass it fizzed up quite a bit which was kind of annoying). Yet getting past the fact that it is made in Minnesnowda and decapitating that massive head is a big roasty beer with that trademark sweet Belgian begining bite.
