Crosby's Kitchen & CocktailNaughty 'Nana

This is a well-balanced Belgian that gives you plenty of caramel as well as hints of bananas both up front and on the finish. The fruity esters, a hallmark byproduct of fermenting with most Belgian yeasts, are wonderfully present without being overly dominating. Brewed at the request of and with Ted Schneider of Moe’s Original BBQ – Fort Collins, when Ted prepared his 5th Anniversary beer dinner at Moe’s he paired this beer with pork belly and a strong herbal/garlic/anchovy sauce that perfectly complemented both the sweetness and the “nana” flavor in the beer. The only thing naughty about it is, perhaps, the ABV, which is cloaked a bit by the balance of the beer.
