Beer Works Grand Cru

Brewed by Salem Beer Works
Style: American Strong Ale
Salem, Massachusetts USA

Serve in Snifter, Trappist glass

On tap during the annual Boston/Salem/Marble head tour. Drank at Salem. The entire group thought that this was the best one they had there. Nice reddish brown pour with thin tan head. Full aroma of bread, banana and clove. Bready/banana taste all perfectly blended.

On tap at Fenway location. Man I hope I’m adding my rating to the right beer. This was a syrupy and alcoholic mess. Maybe its me and grand crus that don’t get along but thank god I only had this as part of my sampler and not a whole pint. Caramel malt and sweetness hiding behind all that alcohol. There is a long throat burning finish. I loved it!
