Brewer Sam Wright's Description: I was going for an approachable Belgian beer that people could drink more than one of. I wanted to use a simple malt bill with British crystal malts to provide a nice sweetness that doesn't get muddled with the yeast character and the hops. To add an American element, Chinook hops were used for bittering, which adds a piney flavor. Saaz hops were added for aroma that blends well with the yeast. I selected a yeast that adds Belgian yeast character without going overboard with phenols. I wanted to make a beer that used ingredients from disparate brewing traditions that worked well together.

Aroma: 7 | Appearance: 7 | Mouthfeel: 7 | Flavor: 7 | Overall: 7
The body pours a clear golden amber, the head is thin, and dosent leave any lace. Aromas strat with bubblegum yeasts and some caramel malts as it warms. Mouthfeel is a bit thin but not bad. Flavors start with the bubblegum yeast and quickly switches to malts and some alcohol, not much in the way of hops.. The only reason that I’m giving this a decent rating is because it’s unoffensive. It’s not bad... just, disappointing.
