Saxo

Rating: 3

Braserie Caracole
Falmignoul, Belgium
Style: Belgian strong / golden ale
ABV: 8%
750 ml bottle
Light straw color with a huge amount of carbonation. Light refreshing taste that I'd put somewhere between a white beer, golden ale, and pale ale. Has the citrus flavors of a white beer, but hops closer to a pale ale. Easy to forget its 8% ABV.

This reminds me of the Troublette we had a couple weeks ago, it would be interesting to try them side-by-side. So far I'm really liking the beers from Caracole. We also had the Nostradamus at Ebeneezers recently and that scored high on everyone's list, though it definitely was a different style of beer.
