Crosby's Kitchen & CocktailGolden Eagle

Golden Eagle is a Belgian Golden Ale brewed with blonde candy sugar, and re-fermented with Brettanomyces yeast in Cabernet Franc/Merlot and Blaufrankish oak barrels from Left Foot Charlie. Despite it’s stylistic origins, the color is closer to a burnt orange, due to the extensive time spent aging in the wine barrels. Impressive sweet candied apple and cautionary alcohol aromas prepare the senses for the array of flavors within. Initial tastes of brown sugar and toffee, flow into apple and pear wine-like qualities, before its slightly tart and peppery finish. The heightened alcohol content cannot be ignored, as it’s warming presence encompasses the entire mouthfeel, lasting well into the finish.
