COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
We believe in Karma. We suspect most of you do, too. It truly is a global concept. Very simply put, "you get what you give." Inspired by this principle and the wonderful farmhouse and pale ales of Belgium, we've created Karma Ale, a decidedly fruity and estery ale, intricate in body and nose, all driven by a unique Belgian yeast strain. Remember, good things DO happen to good people. Here's to being good!

12oz bottle in Trappist glass. Pours orange-amber with thin, white head. Aroma of citrus and bread. Creamy texture, average carbonation, with a crisp finish. Would drink again, but there are better Belgian style ales out there.

chaz01 (190) - Miamisburg, Ohio, USA - APR 17, 2010
Sample tasting at a local beertasting event. Served in a champagne flute glass. Light amber, copper color. Thin to medium head, with just a few bubbles rising from the bottom. Sweet malty aroma, with some fruitiness. Nice mellow earthy caramel taste. A little hop bitterness, but not citrusy. Light to medium bodied, refreshing on the palate. I could drink a few of these easily. Very smooth -- nice beer to have on a hot summer day.

GKillian (525) - Tucson, Arizona, USA - APR 10, 2010
Hazy medium amber color with thick foamy beige head and lots of lacing. Yeasty aroma with hints of orange; reminiscent of a Belgian White. Wheat taste is clearly evident with enough hops to balance it out nicely. Creamy mouthfeel with a tang of carbonation. Overall a very nice ale.

Shag (2229) - Chattanooga, Tennessee, USA - MAR 20, 2010
This poured an orange color with a moderate white head. The aroma contains some spices and herbal notes. Can I be more generic? This might take a while.....some apricots and cloves are also present. The flavor isn’t bursting with flavor but it does contain more citrus notes namely oranges, also some malty notes and good dose of spices. Mr Generic strikes again. Overall this is a nice session beer but far from a complex Belgian

dcschiller (1457) - Scottsdale, Arizona, USA - MAR 19, 2010
(12oz. bottle) Pours an orange color with chunky white head. Aroma of citrus and some dried fruit. Yeastiness is present with a distinct apricot flavor. Its not a fruit beer, but it seems like it and I mean that in a good way. This was a totally unexpected beer.

WesKBob (541) - Bethany, Oklahoma, USA - MAR 16, 2010
Bottle. Pours a nice ruby orange color. Moderate white head that dissipates quickly. Mild aroma of yeast and earthy hops. Flavor is tart pear and a hint of candi sugar. A slightly musty, grassy note. Dry finish. Not great, but refreshing.

coldbrewky (1120) - Saugerties, New York, USA - MAR 5, 2010
Bottle via Bonster the monster. Pours a deep copper brown. Belgian yeast apparent. Nice hop bill that is slightly dominant over the grains. Quick punch of fruity flavor and then gone. Nose of hops and yeast. Decent session/early season lawnmower.
