Steve: The thing I will remember most about this was the experience of buying it. When Kris and I took it to the counter, along with some Old Rasputin, Dogfish Head, Brooklyn and others, the guy behind the counter said, "Oh, the Flanders beers, good choice, good choice." Of course, he said that about all of our selections. I think if I put a cheese log or a frozen turd in front of him, he would've said, "Oh, good choice, good choice." Anyway, this is a good summer ale. It tasted a lot like a Weiss/White beer with a lemon background and low hoppiness. Nice 8% ABV, but it was far from overpowering.
