Barmy-Ballast Point Brewing
Apricot jam, orange marmalade, bananas and wild mountain honey on lightly toasted whole wheat bread. Anything else y'all want to know?
Pretty new brew as far as I can tell. Procured at Total Wine this weekend as a 6er for about $16 (no coupon ), IICC. It's a Belgian-style golden ale that really should be labeled an imperial golden ale. Pour was a yellow-orange with a creamy, fizzy, lacy head, fitting nicely into my Ommegang tulip. Oranges, bananas and light caramel aromas. Tastes as above with a grain or two of black pepper, typical for this style. Apricots and honey are added but the rest of the flavors are pretty standard for a golden/triple ale. What's not standard is the ABV of 12% as most range from 8-10%. IBUs pretty modest at 25. Dangerously drinkable. I've got 5 left. Anyone interested?
