Brau Brothers Frame
Straightener
February 25th thru March 2nd
Brewer's Description
Frame Straightener is the follow-up to our initial release in the Single Batch Series of beers. A traditional take on a classic style, 100% of the malt bill is Belgian in origin. This pale ale is infused with just enough French Strisselspalt hops. Easily a session ale, it begins with malt and plum; earthy and complex. It finishes with a hint of clove and fennel, keeping a peasant bread characteristic throughout.
ABV = 5.4%, Color = 12 SRM, Bitterness = 22 IBU

HopScotch says I’ve made better in my basement…

..I really have. It feels like the Brau Brothers are thinking, “Ya know, If we just put this beer out there, people will drink it.” They are right, we’ll drink it…but it is a lame ass beer. Talk about amateur…even the label looks homemade.

I have to wonder if something was wrong with your bottle?

I’m actually not surprised. I have yet to taste the frame straightener but the one other Brau Brother’s beer (Pils) I have tried I dumped down the drain it was that bad. Reminded me of some of my early on extract home brews.
