COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
The Bruin Ale is our version of a classic Dark Farmhouse Flemish Ale. The appearance is a hazy dark brown with a nice creamy head. The initial smell of nuts and toffee fades into a fruity aroma from the Belgian ale - a Saison yeast blend. The phenolic, spicy, earthy, and clove-like flavors blend nicely with the dark caramel malts for a smooth flavor and dry finish.

Sampled on draft at Zenos in State College PA this beer poured a very dark brown color with a medium sized dark cream colored head. The aroma was sweet, roasty, fruity and complex although a bit faint. The flavor was a very complex mix of drt, bitter, tangy and roasty malts with noted of coffee and dark chocolate. The finish was long, tart, bitter, fruity and roasty. Very interesting.
