COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Specially brewed for Thomas Keller and his restaurants, the French Laundry, Per Se and Bouchon.<br /> Blue Apron Ale has a deep brown color and a palate redolent of oranges, caramel, bread and chocolate, with Belgian yeast adding a hint of spice. 100% bottle re-fermentation gives the beer a lively natural carbonation. Best served at 50 Deg. F, Blue Apron Ale is a fine accompaniment to beef, lamb, roasted game, cured meats, reuben sandwiches and good cheese.

JohnnyJ (3530) - San Diego, California, USA - MAR 20, 2011
Bottle. Dark brown pour. Caramel malts, yeast, bread, light candy sugar, apple, light fruit, and a bit of spice. A nice non-offensive belgian ale, but at the same time it’s also not too exciting.

Rciesla (5499) - Exit 15W, New Jersey, USA - DEC 24, 2010
Bottle shared by EDA. Pours a cola bruin body with a tan head and light head retention. Malty body sweet chewy nutty, etoh latent fruit tones. Fruity with cots, citrus notes, and chocolate malt. Solid offering.

vtafro (1862) - Wayne, New Jersey, USA - DEC 24, 2010
Bottle @ patrick’s. Brown pour with a modest amount of tan head. Belgian yeasts, dark fruits, chocolate, nuttty almost chicory like aroma and flavor notes. This brew maybe misclassified, closer to a dubbel.

Damico (1914) - Royersford, Pennsylvania, USA - JUL 10, 2010
The color is dark brown with a nice creamy head. The aroma and flavors are bready with raisin notes (like in a Westy 12 almost!).

popery (1119) - San Francisco, California, USA - APR 8, 2010
This beer pours an opaque (at least in relatively low light), dark brown with a fine beige head that puffs up well and leaves good lacing. The nose is refined brown sugar, malt and good fruitiness of the plum/nectarine variety. I prefer the aroma to the flavor, which adds in a relatively strong phenol note. Feel is smooth and fairly creamy. The drinkability is high because it’s really an excellent beer to pair with food. It’s a strong, relatively unique flavor that doesn’t dominate the palate.
