COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Here in Brooklyn we’ve combined European malt and hops, Belgian dark sugar, and raw wildflower honey from a New York family farm to create Brooklyn Local 2. Our special Belgian yeast adds hints of spice to the dark fruit, caramel, and chocolate flavors. After 100% bottle re-fermentation, this ale reveals a marvelous dry complexity, enjoyable by itself or at the dinner table.

scarletfire65 (420) - Rockaway Park, New York, USA - OCT 1, 2011
Corked bomber poured into a snifter. Aroma is fruity, yeasty, nutty, caramel sweetness, although the nose is rather subdued. The flavor starts out malty sweet, slightly acidic in the middle. slightly bitter on the finish. Plenty of ripe red fruit flavors, almonds, caramel popcorn, chocolate, slight alcohol presence. The carbonation is perfect, very smooth. The palate is very soft and clean. All in all a very well balanced and well made Belgian style ale.
