The third in a series of quarterly brews (this one in collaboration with our friends and neighbours at Folly Brewing), this one’s a Patersbier, otherwise known as a Belgian Enkel, or a Singel. Or, perhaps more simply put: it’s a light, refreshing ale with fruity, floral and peppery notes.

SRM: 14
Carbonation: 2.7 Volumes (High)
Malts: Rye, Pilsner, Vienna, Flaked Rye
Yeast: Escarpment Weizen I
Appearance: Very hazy golden orange with a thick white head
Aroma: Lots of banana esters with clove and rye spice underneath, toasty malt, herbal hops
Taste: Sweet malt with banana and rye spice layered overtop, fruity and spicy hop notes finish out the palate with some lingering grainy notes
Mouthfeel: Medium bodied with a creamy mouthfeel, lively carbonation
Overall impression: A fruity and spicy German ale with notes of rye and hops dancing with the banana esters
