Living in the Abbey brewing tradition, lies a sect of beer known as the Belgian Blondes and Strong Golden Ales. These beers are seductive, powerful, and deceptive. Known for being bright and snappy like a Pilsner, but complex like a Tripel, the Strong Blondes live in the 6.5%-7.5% range, while the Strong Goldens makes its way up to 8.5%. These beers are dry, slightly fruity, spicy, and have a soft pear flavor. When bottle conditioned they are bright and sparkly like Champagne and the foam bursts in your mouth as you sip.
pFriem’s Orange Zest Golden Ale gives nod to the Golden and Blonde Ales of Belgium that are brewed with Oats, Candi Sugar, and Coriander. These fluffy and delicate beers are floral, smooth, and laced with lovely orange notes.
Bright blonde topped with pillowy white foam. Boosting aromas of tangerine zest, clove, and lemon meringue. Fluffy and delicate flavors of lemon cake, pie spice, orange sherbet, and zest. Finishes light, effervescent, with a citrus kiss.
Great with salty and fatty hors d'oeuvres such as prosciutto, jamon serrano and gravlax. Great with pastas such as capellini alla cecca, spaghetti agli e olio, and gnocchi con pesto di Levanto. Delicate fish with a squeeze of lemon or simply prepared fattier fish: sardines, fresh anchovies and Spanish mackerel. Bitter and hearty greens such as Belgian endives, terviso, and radicchio. Raw oysters, steamed clams, and of course mussels and frites.
