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!

This brew really is all mixed up. I guess that might be what you expect from something thats a belgin and a pale ale. It had a pretty thick texture and a mix of fruity taste with nice hoppy flavor. The strong flavor was a bit of a surprise, it reminded me a lot of that beer I helped make where the fuggle (end brewing hops) got left out. Almost no beer aroma at all but a decently strong flavor when you get to drinking.
It was still a bit sweet also but not nearly as much as the honey beers which was what made it drinkable, but for the most part I felt it was just a fairly average drink.
