Michigan Brewing Celis Grand Cru

Pours almost as if it is flat. Looks like it could be a Bud/Miller/Coors with the color and how clean it looks. Aroma; candy, herbal, coriander, but something seems off. Flavor is a little bitter but then fairly sweet. Maybe some candied sugar? Long finish. Doesn’t feel or taste like 8%. Overall impression, it confuses me. I do not understand what direction he is going with this beer.

Bottle, courtesy Tony at Oldsmar Tap House. Pours a transparent pale golden straw color, with creamy lacing a fairly prominent white frothy head. Floral hops in the nose, various spices, grass, chalk. Big herbal kick on the first sip. Fairly malty, with plum and citrus. Nice bitter finish. Creamy, brisk, crisp, drinkable, exceeds my expectations based on the appearance, as it basically looks like a pale lager.

bottle - Pours golden with a thin white head. It has a nice, full aroma of citrus, yeast, and some herbal notes. The taste is sweet and citrus heavy with a touch of spice. It has a medium body and lively carbonation. The fruity notes linger in the finish without being overpowering. Good stuff.

Clear light golden beer, nearly headless - aroma of spices, honey, citrus, alcohol - the flavor has an indistinct herbal bitterness, honey sweetness, and mild floral character - lacking anything that makes it stand out - it’s difficult for me to even take notes after each sip - it’s that easy to forget - the most noticeable character is the sweetness (the most common flaw of the american made belgian ale) - meh.

bottle that pours golden in color with nice head that disappears shortly after. lots of flavors and spices and fruit. hard to distinguish them all but for this beer its pretty good and this is one that is good cold. hard to believe its 8% abv.
