A Bier DeMars. Rare Flemish “farmhouse” style beer, traditional brewed extra strong in the month of March. Fermentation gives the beer flavors of dark fruits, to which one pound of plums per gallon were added.

Had several of these at the brewery. Overall a good strong ale with a very smooth taste. Can definitely taste the plum but well balanced. Will have again if at the brewery.

I'm trying this at the brewery. It poured a clear copper with no head and no lace. The scent had faint dark fruit and spice. The taste was borderline bourbon with plum accents....there was a spice as well to help accentuate the burn in the throat when tasting. The mouthfeel was lighter in body with good carbonation. Overall it's an interesting beer.
