All About Beer

Belgian-style specialty ales

These are Belgian-styled ales to which herbs, fruits, or atypical spices have been added in order to impart flavor or color. Depending on whether or not the seasonings have been used in the fermentation or as an addition of juice or extract, the beer will have more or less of the desired character. These beers are highly individualistic, and they allow the brewers great creativity in their formulations. They will range from mild aromatic overtones to intense and pungently-flavored concoctions.
