Review - The Matt Brewing Company's Saranac Belgian Ale
"This deliciously fruity ale is brewed with a generous amount of Belgian aromatic malt, hand selected hops and a traditional Belgian ale yeast. Brewed in the "Trappist" style, our Saranac Belgian Ale's fruity, malty character will leave you craving another bottle. Enjoy!" -- The Matt Brewing Company
Pours a light amber color with a large, frothy off-white head with excellent retention, yet no lacing. Aroma is loaded up front with cloves and fruity notes, provided by banana, on the back end. Initial taste is a moderately sweet, fading to a faint sweet finish with soft carbonation. Light to medium in body, it has a watery texture with a metallic mouthfeel.
