Avec Frère 5, Belgian Style Single

Belgian Singles are an often misunderstood style. They aren’t as sweet as a Belgian Blonde nor as hoppy as a Belgian Pale, instead they are more akin to a German Pilsner but fermented with expressive Abbey ale yeast. They strike a balance between a present and supportive malt profile and a spicy and floral hop profile.
Built on a combination of Epiphany Modern Pilsner malt, a blend of European hops, and our preferred Abbey style yeast, Avec Frère 5 is our attempt to highlight this balance. It is bitter and highly attenuated with aromas that are spicy, floral, and fruity. The flavor begins with bready malt tones but quickly moves toward pome fruit, citrus and spicy, yeast-driven phenolics. The finish is dry and bitter with hop notes of dried flowers and earthy herbs.
