32oz crowler filled at the South Hill Growler Guys in Spokane, WA, on March 24, 2018.

Poured into Young Buck's take on a Belgian glass, this is a slightly chill-hazed coppery amber color, with a good sized beige colored head that was fairly quick to fall but left lots of lace.

Big fruity and spicy nose. Just the sort of esters one expects from such a beer.

Fruity and spicy in equal measure at the beginning of the taste. The peppery and clove-y spiciness wins out, dominating by the finish, which is slightly dry. The rather high alcohol content is not obvious from the taste.

Body and mouthfeel are just a little bit bigger than a true Belgian example, but much closer than most American versions.

Really enjoy this beer. Although I put this down as rotating when I first added it to BA, it seems to be a regular at the Steel Barrel, so perhaps it's to be brewed year round. I won't complain about that.
