This is a light Belgian Pale ale with a seamless blend of yeast and hop aroma, such that you can’t tell where one ends and the other starts. The palate is dry and slightly tart, with a moderate Belgian texture.

(Bottle) Slightly hazy amber gold with slight white head. Nice aroma with spicey pepper notes balanced with sweeter notes including white chocolate and stone fruit. Nice palate with plentiful fine carbonation giving a velvety mouthfeel. Flavour is a little disappointing after this build up, but still good. It starts of with a rich and nicely balanced combination of smooth sweetness, spice, banana esters and hints of stone fruit, but the taste then loses complexity leaving a rather harsh aftertaste. Overall a pretty good beer, but not quite right in the finish.

Pours amber with a large, fading head.Nose shows phenolic and estery Belgian yeast, along with the typical doughy notes. Also present is some soft fruity hops with hints of grapefruit, but mainly its the apple/pear notes from the yeast. A little faint.The flavours are also more Belgian than American, with more light fruit, alcohol and doughy notes showing. Underneath is some sweet bready malt and caramel, followed by a bold, sharp bitterness, showing the American influences.Body could be a little lighter.

Bottle - a particularly attractive one, even considering the brewery is an offshoot of an art museum. Also tried on tap at GABS. Clear gold with a white head that fades to a coat but can be coaxed back with a swirl. Aroma of lemons, oranges, apples, coriander, white pepper, a little dough, vanilla. Slightly sweet but not very fruity, then tartish, then modestly bitter and spicy. Dry finish with lingering spices. Nice balance but not terribly involving. Pleasant aperitif.
