It’s a bright, golden hue, lightly hazy, with a short, but lasting head, a little off-whitish in color.
Aroma: Belgian yeast and spice. Pepper and clove and funk. Very nice.
In the mouth: the spice keeps coming. In a good way. Is it “hot”? Nearly. Light bodied, easy drinking. Not in the sense of alcohol, anyway, but the spice factor is high. Well-balanced, though, and tasty. Malt is coming through, rich and rewarding. Herbal and earthy. I’m liking this more and more.Digging it.
Here's some gobbledygook from the website:
Grains of Truth is Ommegang’s ale honoring the harvest season. Using barley, oats, wheat, and rye, we’ve brought the mood of fall to life with vibrant and flavorful passion.
Farming is about precision, timing and care. At Ommegang we place the same emphasis a farmer has for his crops into the creation of our beers. Grains of Truth is a testament to the craft and care of farming, from which our farmstead-brewed beers benefit greatly.
Brewed with balance in mind, Grains of Truth reveals a smooth and creamy mouthfeel with light toastiness and gentle sweetness. Bright amber in color from the mixed malts, the beer is balanced with delicate hopping to counter rather than overpower the malt profile.
Available for a limited time in 1/6 BBLs 1/2 BBLs and 12oz bottles every fall.
