Description:
Made in honor of our friend Bill and his voyage through that Montana area. His time spent and his appreciation of good people, life, food, and of course Beer! So I give you my own creation and current inspirations in Brewing. This is a 350 year old yeast from a monastery in Belgium, malt from France and Belgium with American hops. I call it an American Belgian style Pale Ale. Soft coriander and citrus tang run lightly over the tongue and a soft citrus aroma lifts from the malty background. Try a little of what’s to come from the Blue Canoe.

Varietal Definition
Pale Ale:
Pale ales tend to be fuller-bodied with a more assertive character on the palate the standard bitter in a English brewers portfolio. In England it is generally a bottled, as opposed to being sold on draft. Despite the name, pale ales are not pale but, in fact, more of an amber hue. The original designation was in reference to this style of beer being paler than the brown and black beers which were more popular at the time of the styles inception. In the US pale ale styles have become one of the benchmarks by which craft brewers are judged. The US version of pale ale is crisper and generally much more hoppy. Indeed this style is well suited to assertive domestic Pacific Northwestern hop varieties that give the US examples inimitable character.
