As you pour this rich golden ale into your glass, consider your surroundings. Are you in a restaurant? Outside on the deck? Is it hot and humid? Cold and brisk? Take a drink. Feel the way Hennepin is bright and lively in your mouth with a warming mix of spicy gingersnap and citrusy hops. Refreshing. Relaxing. It's true: no matter where you are, Hennepin is the perfect ale for all seasons.

Best With: 
Try Hennepin with rustic fare such as quiche, bread and cheeses, roasted chicken, fresh water fish, including shellfish (especially lobster). Hennepin's coriander and ginger notes lend themselves to the composed spicing in Asian cuisines. It goes well with Thai and Indian cuisine, sushi, Mongolian hotpots, fried fish, spare ribs and Peking duck.

A cloudy pale straw color,withfrothy lingering head out of the bottle. Aroma to me of a sweet corn-meal mash. A malty front with a sweet finish fading clean. Nice summer time beer like Saisson Dupont without the 'horse blanket', slightly sweeter than the classic farmhouse ale.
