Le Merle is a rustic ale, pale in color, inspired by the rich brewing traditions of the Flanders region. Abundant hops and a Belgian yeast strain contribute exotic aromas of tropical fruit.
For all she has contributed since the brewery’s founding, North Coast Brewing is pleased to honor our Merle, co-founder Mark Ruedrich’s wife, with Le Merle (the Blackbird), a subtle sophisticated Belgian-style Saison beer.

750 ml from Grocery Outlet. Aroma has notes of clove, bubblegum, bread, wet stone. Pours hazy golden with a large cream-white pillowy head with excellent retention. Taste is sweet with spicy Belgian yeast phenols in all the right ways. Weird I've never rated this. I thought I had. Good stuff.
