| Description: | This brew was handcrafted by former Saucer manager, Rob Landerman, brewmaster for Ranger Creek. In 1685, the explorer La Salle claimed Texas in the name of France, landing at Matagorda Bay on a ship called the Aimable. In honor of Texas' French and Mexican heritages, we created a complex Belgian-style ale with a name to match: La Bestia is Spanish for The Beast, while Aimable is French for friendly. This devilishly friendly dark strong ale has a rich, complex nose of deep berry and fig with cinnamon, nutmeg, and black pepper spicy notes, and a superbly drinkable body full of rich, dark fruit flavors. The use of Texas honey and a well attenuated body in the Belgian abbey tradition make this beer superbly drinkable. 9.5% abv. | |
