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
Overall Rating based on 25 reviews

Ben R says surprisingly drinkable
March 2nd, 2008
I read the label on the Frame Straightener and saw that it was a Belgian with some plum flavors and I was ready to take a sip and pour the rest down the drain. I was pleasantly surprised by the mild flavor, this is actually a very drinkable beer. Most of my experiences with Belgians has not been good, but this is definitely one that I would consider buying, if for no other reason than to have it around when I wanted a change of pace.
And I have to agree with lowrez, the Brau sister is a hottie.
