Notes

Malty character is king in this Biere de Garde style brew. The base characteristics of this beer are warmth and slight breadiness followed by honey and sweet cream. Secondary malty characteristics of toffee, caramel, burnt sugar, raisin, and dark dried fruits such as cherries and plums linger softly supported by the medium mouthfeel. Malts in this beer provide an intense reddish hue and a light-tan, full, persistent head.

The unique yeasts complement this winter brewed Biere de Garde with citrusy esters and restrained phenols. The strains produce characters of lemon pith, earthy black pepper, and a soft mouthfeel. Fermented off sweet.

Bitterness comes by way of mildly spicy and earthy aromas. Modern hops provide soft floral aromas with an overt kick of dried apple, pear, citrus, and crushed gooseberry.
