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

berrywise says There’s an old saying in Tennessee
March 11th, 2008
– I know it’s in Texas, probably in Minnesota — that says, fool me once, shame on — shame on you. Fool me — you can’t get fooled again.
Well I’ve been fooled twice now by Brau Brothers. This beer was awful and all the talk of a bad bottle…breweries just shouldn’t have bad bottles…this is the second beer I’ve had from them (Pils being the first) that tasted like it had hardly any carbonation and tasted like syrup.
It reminds me of some of my very first extract homebrews where I thought to myself hmm this isn’t terrible for something I made myself, but would I pay to drink it? Heck no. Thank goodness I bought it as a single so I’m not dumping five more beers down the drain.
I feel bad ripping a small local brewer but I guess ya gotta call it like it is.
