Our Grand Cru is a rich, golden color with fruity and spicy alcohol flavors, supported by a soft malt character. The bottle-conditioning creates the effervescence and a massive, long-lasting head which results in “Belgian lace” as the head fades. The beer consists of malted and unmalted wheat with malted barley; the addition of European noble hops and three Belgian yeast strains create subtle pear, orange and apple flavors.

Cru is a French wine term which means “growth place” or “great growth”. Brewers in Europe, notably in Belgium, and America use the designation to refer to a beer that is created to showcase the brewer’s art and to represent their passion for their brewery.
