We had another round of Friday beer at work.

Garde Dog poured an orangish tan with ample head and very visible carbonation. Grape dominated the aroma, with a background of berries and straw/grain husks. The flavor opens with grapes, an almost wine like taste, followed by a belgian-like carbonation and finishes with a light malty sweetness. Definitely not what I expected from biere de garde and certainly not what I expected based on the label. I liked it. Check out Flying Dog online.

I was pleasantly surprised by the taste when I tried this as well, on the brewery tour. Not their usual style, but then I’m not sure I could say they have “usual style”.
