Found a 12pk of the Saranac Winter Mixer at a packie a few weeks back.. discount price.. why not?!
Matt Brewing Co - Saranac - Belgian Pale Ale
a 5.4% ABV 28 IBU well.. Belgian Pale Ale, clearly. Crystal-clear golden pour.. this scarily looks like fizzy yellow beer! And it is fizzy as hell, that's for sure. There's a decent aroma coming off of this.. sweet, bready malts, touches of clove and some apple/pear combine with the faintest grassy hops. This is really smooth and crisp.. more lager-like than an ale. Lighter, sweet malts - honey, bready, smooth.. only a touch of bubblegum and clove from the Belgian aspect of the name come through. Touches of a metallic note and fruit - apple, pear, orange etc.. This is very drinkable, but overall doesn't stand out in any way. just a nice run-of-the-mill Belgian Pale
