Hoppy Belgian-Style Ale
Mischief is a hoppy Belgian-style golden strong ale. This wickedly good golden ale is fiendishly dry-hopped with American hops to add a layer of complexity and mystery to its fruity, dry Belgian-style character. Citrus and resin diabolically combine with ripe melon, pear and slight peppery spice in a precariously effervescent mixture. Enjoy it, but you’ll want to keep an eye out.

Bottle shared at my 30:th birthday tasting on May 5 (30 år av Surt). Courtesy of rlgk. Pours hazy golden with a huge creamy and frothy white head that slowly dissipates while leaving ome thick lacing on the glass. Smell is ssweet and floral with apricots, ripe oranges, hay, orange zest, bread, flower nectar and hints of barnyard. Taste is sweet with white bread, lemon zest, plums, hay, ripe citrus fruits and grapes. Mouthfeel is tiny dry and medium bodied. Finish is tiny sweet, tiny bitter and slightly dry with ripe citrus fruits, apricots and orange zest. --- Beer merged from original tick of Mischief on 11 Dec 2015 at 20:59 - Score: 7.

Draft at Dexters. Filtered golden-orange. Big fluffy white head. Sweet herbal beer, somewhere between a Tripel and a Golden Ale. Zesty chamomile, coriander taste. Refined effervescent mouthfeel, typical of Bruery products. Quite drinkable and enjoyable, but rather one dimensional.

Bottled. Clear golden, huge head. Juicy citric nose. Sweet with medium body and well rounded mouthfeel. Winegum, perfume, citrus and coriander mingle with marzipan. Elegant modern style hopped up Belgo ale with mild but growing bitterness and a slight tingle of brandy.

On tap at Naja’s. Hazy blonde. Some light pear esters and spicy hops on the nose. Light spicy palate with some sweet, pineapple/pear accents. Not bad, but not worth passing up a Duvel for or anything like that.

Sample on Day 2 of the Aces & Ales Strong Beer Festival on 08/13/2011. This beer is a mostly clear straw color with a medium fluffy white head that diminishes steadily. Thin rings of lacing on the glass. Hoppy, yeasty aroma with a touch of malt. Medium body with flavors of hops, zesty fruit, yeast and malt. The finish is moderately hoppy and leaves a yeast note behind. A little disjointed overall but decent.
