As part of #FeBREWary, Beau's will be launching a new beer each week. This week they've teamed up with Portland Oregon brewery Gigantic Brewing Co. for La Formidable American-Belgo IPA.
Beau's describes La Formidable as a 6.9% American-Belgo IPA; a relatively new hybrid beer style that crosses bold, citrusy American-style hop aromas with the signature fruity, spicy and earthy elements of Belgian yeast. The hazy golden ale exudes appetizing aromas of grapefruit and orange, along with light piney notes and white pepper. The flavour offers a firm but balanced bitterness that is complemented by citrus fruitiness. The finish is spicy with earthy undertones.
The Brewers will be at The Black Tomato in Ottawa Fri. Feb. 27 for a “Meet the Brewers” event from 7-9 pm and at the Beau’s Brewery in Vankleek Hill to greet visitors on Saturday Feb. 28 from 1-4 pm.
You can find this and other #feBREWary beer on tap at one of the following locations: http://www.beaus.ca/febrewary/taps.
La Formidable will also become available in LCBO stores in early-to-mid March.
