Halia is a farmhouse ale aged in wine barrels with whole peaches, resulting in bright, effervescent fruit notes in a soft, hazy body that finishes slightly tart and sweet with the pleasant character of ripe, juicy peaches. Literally meaning “remembrance of a loved one” in Hawaiian, Halia was brewed in memory of the dear friend of one of our brewers who loved peaches.

Sample at Kurtkeller 022: Pumpkin-tastic 03 on 10/31/2015. Clear golden color with a medium white head that evaporates steadily to a film. Partial rings of lacing. Aroma of tart fruit, yeast and malt. Medium body with flavors of tart peaches, yeast and doughy malt. The finish is fruity with a peach and citrus aftertaste. Pretty good overall.
