Domaine du Page, French Style Country Ale, Two Brothers Brewing Company, Warrenville, IL. "This food friendly ale is deep amber in color, with a toasty, sweet caramel start. It finishes with just enough hops to clean off the palate. Bon appetite!" Ha, they made a funny there.
So, what do I have to say? Let's find out, won't we?
Dark amber, nearly crimson coloring, lightly toasted tannish head, soon to disappear.
Caramel malt aromatics, minor fruit, even more minor hops. Apples and nuts with a side of toast.
Taste: More of the same arrives in the mouth, with an added dose of spice. Little pricks of spice and heat jab the palate, then duck away as all is smooth and malty. Just a dash of hops, for a minute or two, to match the Belgian yeast character. Warm and welcoming, expert censurability, and, yeah, a fantastic food parer, to be sure. Fruit, spice and bread are already in the mouth, let's let some more flavors in to join the merriment.
