First brewed in 2008 at our original brewery in downtown Kalamazoo, Oarsman Ale grew out of our desire to explore the tradition of session beers and to create a unique, flavorful experience for everyone, no matter what the occasion.
Tart and refreshing, this sessionable, bright Wheat Ale exudes citrus and lemony aromas from Cascade hops and trades sour intensity for finesse. A perfect companion for any occasion, Oarsman Ale is a beer based in tradition, but with that distinctive Bell’s twist.
A perfect beer to compliment any menu.

Flaska från Mikkellers webshop. Fin frisk, aningen vetesyrlig, med citrus och lite jästkaraktär. Smaken är blekare och ganska anonym men iaf mjuk och len men lätt syrlighet. Ok, men som ofta med USveteöl väl slätstruket.
