COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Tired of talking my friends into pit stops at beer bars before heading “out” - in fear of having to drink bland lager all night - I set out to craft an ale that would act as companion throughout the evening. Fit for beer geeks and party freaks alike, Leon is whole-cone hopped and fermented dry using champagne yeast. The yeast and the hops (Amarillo & Simcoe) in combination with a simple malt bill provides the beer with a quality of being rich in taste yet refreshing. Drink it chilled out of a wine glass or just straight out of the bottle.

Skål!

womencantsail (6859) - Garbage Grove, California, USA - OCT 2, 2012
Pale golden pour with a white head. Quite buttery with some bready malt sweetness, a bit of citrus peel, and very mild spice notes. A bit watery, but the butter is quite bad. Tastes very buttery as well. Mild clove spiciness, some hints of citrus, and a decent pale malt sweetness. Still ruined by the diacetyl.
