Belgian Strong Ale 12.5 º

The Bruery

This Imperial Belgian-style Golden Ale blooms with a sophisticated marriage of traditional yeast character and vibrant botanicals. Rose hips and hibiscus impart an elegant floral bouquet and a delicate rose-gold hue, weaving through layers of tropical fruit and pome fruit esters. Despite its potent 12.5% ABV, the beer maintains a signature effervescence, balancing a subtle malty sweetness with a bright, slight tartness. The palate is remarkably complex, offering a peppery spice and soft pome fruit notes that transition into a lingering, dry finish. It is a masterful interpretation that elevates the essence of spring into a powerful, multi-layered sensory experience.

Appearance. Pale gold with distinct ruby and rose-hued highlights. Brilliant clarity with an effervescent carbonation that supports a massive, long-lasting, rocky white head and significant lacing.

Aroma. High intensity featuring a complex bouquet of pear and red apple esters alongside distinctive floral notes of hibiscus and rose hips. Moderate herbal hop character and a noticeable peppery, perfumy alcohol presence. Subtle tropical fruit undertones of pineapple and mango emerge as it warms.

Taste. Initial malty sweetness yields to a wash of pear-like esters and floral botanicals. Hibiscus provides a slight, refreshing tartness that complements the moderate herbal hop bitterness. The mid-palate reveals tropical fruit notes and peppery phenols. It finishes very dry with a lingering, warming alcohol presence and a soft floral aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Medium body, though notably lighter than the high gravity suggests due to high attenuation. Very high carbonation creates an effervescent, sparkling sensation. Significant but smooth alcohol warmth is present, providing a creamy yet crisp mouthfeel.
