Self-Defined Style:
Chardonnay Barrel Aged Belgian Strong The beer formerly known as Chardonnay Blonde. Our first beer in the Reserve Series, Melange a Trois begins with a wonderfully big Strong Belgian-Style Blonde Ale and moves into the extraordinary category through an additional 6 month French Oak Chardonnay Wine Barrel maturation.
The essence of Chardonnay permeates while a subtle sweetness remains from the Ale itself.
Oak tannins combine to create a fascinating mesh of dry, sweet, and wine-like character.
One of our favorites!
Best With:
Rich, sweet desserts. Vanilla, cherries, apricots. Perfect with Mako Shark.
