Our Belgian Brown Ale with a unique twist. This base comes from a more classic American brown ale using Copeland 2 Row from Fallon, NV (will shift to Thoroughbred 6 row from Carrol County, MD in 2016) some crystal and roasted malts then utilizing a Belgian Yeast and a New French Chestnut barrel for aging. The approach was to balance the toast / roast of the barrel with the roasted malts in the grain bill while protecting the aromatics of the yeast, no easy task. After utilizing some wine making techniques and careful handling, the result is a beautiful beer that combines in harmony both New and Old World styles. We finally have a good source of more French Chestnut so you will be seeing this beer more frequently if you come to visit or are a Member.
