Burgundy. Dry, butterscotchy, malty, bitter, complex. An outstanding beer.

Bright and amber. The aroma - big, yeasty, malty, peppery, hints of anise, pears, and almost everything in between. This is big stuff - a heady dose of alcohol, smooth, peppery malt and yeast weaving in and out, and easing off just enough to make this beer a little too drinkable for its size.

Strong, unspiced witbier, which emerges yeastier, maltier, and drier than most.
