Here in Brooklyn we’ve combined European malt and hops, Belgian dark sugar, and raw wildflower honey from a New York family farm to create Brooklyn Local 2. Our special Belgian yeast adds hints of spice to the dark fruit, caramel, and chocolate flavors. After 100% bottle re-fermentation, this ale reveals a marvelous dry complexity, enjoyable by itself or at the dinner table.

Piwo smaczne i pieknie wygladajace. Piana obfita i bezowo fioletowa jakby, ale nie dosc trwala. Kolor granatowo brazowo rubinowy, gesty i metny. W zapachu sliwki i owoce borowki. W smaku jagody, karmel miod oraz orzechy wloskie. Ale delikatne jakby w doznaniach. Alkohol w pierwszej chwili niewyczuwalny ale po przelknieciu lekko sie go odczuwa, nie mniej dobrze ukryty. Chmielu niezbyt wiele sie wyczuwa. W smaku przypomina mi nieco kompot z suszu ze spora dawka karmelowego cukru. Ogolnie fajne, ale czegos innego sie spodziewalem. Dosc zaskakujace piwo. Jedynka chyba lepsza byla.

Getrunken auf der Braukunst live 2014 oder 2015...da bin ich jetzt nicht mehr sicher... Was ich noch im Kopf habe, war der Geschmack nach ein bisschen Mousse au chocolat und heißen Kirschen und dazu ein Schuss Obstler. Alles recht gut verwoben und zu einem interessanten Gesamtbild zusammengefasst.

Tasted from a bottle at Horeca Expo Ghent. Belgian-inspired strong beer with light beige, stable, moussy head and dark wine red colour, misty. Pleasant aroma of figs, banana, port wine, caramel, cinnamon, overripe plums and pears, citrus peel. Sweet fruity, thick and rich taste, banana, marzipan, chocolate and caramel, citrus touch, retronasal spiciness (cinnamon), fluffy and full mouthfeel, yeasty, medium long finish with peppery hops and some warming alcohol. Very well balanced and excellent.
