New Belgium Brewing
Fort Collins, Colorado, USA
5.6% abv
$9.99 a six pack
I had a bottle of this the other night and I found it to be …
uninteresting … just like this football game I am getting ready to watch
between the Bears and the Lions.
Appearance: deep dark mahogany body with a thin tan head
that leaves some sticky lacing on the glass.
Aroma: very light bouquet; light roasted malts
Flavors/mouthfeel: roasted grains, a little chocolate note
in the mix, simple in style, light/moderate carbonation, fairly clean feel and
finish.
To the Point: to me … not all that interesting, too simple
on the nose and taste, should be good to pair with a mild or medium bodied
cigar, should work with a full bodied smoke … there are no flavors in the ale
that should interfere with a bold smoke and the ale should refresh the palate.
