Bier De Mars

New Belgium Brewing Co

Biere de Garde | 6.2% ABV

Description

Again in 2012, we are pleased to offer one of our favorite harbingers of spring, Biere de Mars.With earthy tones of ripe mango and lemon verbena, this bottle-conditioned ale reflects the hearty character of the southern Belgian and northern French countrysides. Brewed with barley, oats and wheat malt, Biere de Mars’ celestial orange hue inspired the planetary play on words.Brettanomyces, a wild yeast strain, added for bottle-conditioning creates a refreshingly sour flash across the palate. Lemon peel coupled with the lemon verbena imparts fruitlike character and a citrusy finish.

Just the facts Ma’am…
