Dave's BrewFarm Accidental Belgian
Dave's BrewFarm Accidental Belgian, 7.2% ABV.
Highly hazed, deep orange appearance, creamy white head.
Aroma: smooth, soft, and spicy. Feathery wheat, light fruit, minor hops and spice.
Taste: Big mouthful, generous texture, lots of play on the palate. Slightly higher alcohol for a brew this easy and downable. It's a witbier with a pale ale and it's wonderful. Big, spicy rye malt going on, full of flavor, loads of everything. Damnably delicious. Massive goings on all up and down the tongue, and through the back of the throat, etcetera.
Here's the word from Farmer Dave: "What happens when your yeast supplier ships the wrong yeast to the wrong brewery? Yup, it's the Accidental Belgian! 2-Row, Caramel 20 and rye malts. Brewer's Gold and Heirloom hops and a dash of orange peel, fermented with the "accidental" Belgian wit yeast. A yummy oops!"
My favorite kind.
