Saint Benjamin De Cave

Aroma: “Apple, vanilla, oak, and a combination of spicy phenols and alcohol. Very apple pie–like. There’s also caramel and toasty malt. Slight earthy hops, slight tartness, woody Brett. Some notes of clean barn, dry hay.”

Flavor: “Very much apple pie still. Moderately low sweetness into moderately high acidity that fades into a dry but light boozy finish. Caramel malt, aged/earthy hops. Slight funk/tartness.”

Overall: “Like apple pie with vanilla ice cream and boozy caramel sauce. Medium wild funk keeps this beer interesting. Tasty beer!”
