Substyle - Special Bitter Or Best Bitter
Brewed By: 
Nethergate
Self-Defined Style: 
Bitter
Strength (ABV): 
5.5% ABV

If England had ever been under Belgian rule this is the style of beer that would have resulted. Stronger than a typical British bitter, brewed with heaps of coriander and bottle conditioned, Augustinian Ale skips fearlessly between two brewing traditions. Boldly hopped with a bracing bitterness and sweeping coriander flavor. A unique, exceptional beer. Bottle conditioned.

Best With: 
This clean bitter can be used as a digestif or with game style meats like boar, veal or even a hearty steak. With its caramel notes this strong ale pairs with chocolates and sharp cheeses, as well as traditional bar foods.

Scaldis
Self-Defined Style: 
Belgian Amber Ale
Strength (ABV): 
12.0% ABV

Scaldis Refermentee is a 12% abv amber ale brewed expressly to celebrate the 75th anniversary of Scaldis. Like Scaldis it has deeply aromatic notes of praline and vanilla. Thanks to fine dosage of yeast, it undergoes a fermentation in the bottle that further deepens the complexity and fullness of body. Suitable for cellaring.
Scaldis “Refermentée,” is less sweet, has an earthier nose and fine, creamy texture, the result of a slow, natural refermentation in the bottle. It’s a new entry from Dubuisson, newly available in the US.
