French Country Ale
Our Summit Amber is an old school amber brewed in a traditional French Biere de Garde style. We use malts from Malteries Franco Belges, and hops from Germany and Belgium to create a beer with a deep, warm color, bold sweetness up front and a finish reminiscent of a fine brandy. This beer is a favorite among those seeking a bigger, more complex beer.

Malts: Franco Belges Pilsner, Vienna and Cara Munich
Hops: Perle, Aurora
