Tasting Notes
refreshing light taste with hop/malt balanced, slight peppery Belgian esters
Great session beer with a clean taste and just enough Belgian funk to make it a little different. The 3711 does give a silky mouthfeel as advertised and attenuation is amazing. Had a few BMC types really like it so you know it's not too over the top :ban:
