Eye of the Hawk Select Ale is coppery amber in color and characterized by a luxurious caramel malt flavor, a substantial mouth-feel and a slightly warming yet dry finish. Like all of the ales brewed by MBC, Eye of the Hawk Select Ale is bottle conditioned. Bottle Conditioning is a traditional Old World technique whereby actively fermenting yeast is introduced into the mature beer right before bottling, resulting in the development of natural carbonation and rich flavors in the bottle.

Best With: 
Because of its rich body and deep flavor, The Eye is a welcome complement of meals. However, for all its heartiness, The Eye is also complex and subtle, making it a worthy complement to salmon, or pasta with cream sauces. As an adjunct to fine food, The Eye is a beer to be experimented with.
