⌂ > Allagash Hive 56

Hive 56 is a dark sour ale aged with honey & Brettanomyces in an oak foudre for eighteen months. Over the course of 18 months, the Brettanomyces transforms the honey, resulting in a beer with bold, roasty flavors, and a hint of tropical fruit. The beer is deep mahogany in color with aromas of strawberries, lemon, and tropical fruit; notes of dark chocolate, raspberries, and figs present themselves upon the first sip, followed by a lingering tartness. 9.2% ABV
