Horny Devil (formerly known as Belgian Strong Ale) is inspired by the curious beers produced by Trappist monks in monasteries across Belgium. The beer's dryness and strength are the result of a unique Trappist yeast strain in a warm fermentation. These attributes are subtly masked by the restrained use of premium low-alpha hop varieties. The malt flavors and fruity esters produced during fermentation create the initial impression, while authentic Belgian Candi sugar and fresh coriander add complexity to the palate. Horny Devil has a bright straw/light yellow color and good head formation and retention when properly served. Appealing Brussels lace. Intriguingly complex. Starts with flavors of fresh coriander and characteristics of Trappist yeast, then fades to a nice, dry finish. Light on the palate but exploding with flavor. Vinous aroma with a heavy dose of coriander and fruity esters from the Trappist yeast. Horny Devil has a light-to-medium body, with warmth from the high alcohol content and a clean, dry finish. Alcohol percentage: 10.0%.
