Specifications
Strength (ABV): 
10.0% ABV

Our interpretation of a Belgian-inspired Scotch ale, Musette undergoes a caramelization process in the kettle, where the first runnings are condensed and caramelized, imparting a unique and subtle caramel character and amber color to the beer. Following fermentation with a Belgian strain of yeast, a portion of it is aged in oak bourbon barrels for an additional three months. Musette offers up raisin, ripened banana, and hints of licorice aromas. Its taste is malty and caramel with a hint of roast, and its warm finish strikes a balance between dry and caramel characters with a hint of smoke.

Best With: 
This mildly sweet beer is a perfect pair for barbeque pork and beef brisket. For dessert, the bitter and sour taste of dark chocolate will truly amplify this beer's unique palate.
