Beer #1: Cuvee Des Fleurs
Style: Farmhouse Ale
ABV: 8.2%
Flavor Text: Cuvèe des Fleurs roughly translates to “batch of the flowers”. This most distinctive ale is flavored with a variety of edible flowers. Aromatic and medicinal flowers such as Lavender, Chamomile, Calendula, Rose Hips and Hops (they’re flowers too!) are added to this special brew to impart a distinct aroma and flavor.

Beer #2: Saison Deluxe
Style: Saison
ABV: 7.4%
Flavor Text: Stunningly complex with tropical fruit overtones of pineapple and passion fruit. Imported malt and hops create a smooth, earthy flavor on the palate. A farmhouse-style ale, SAISON DELUXE successfully combines traditional rustic flavor with a sophisticated craft-brewed taste.

Beer #3: Abbot 12
Style: Belgian Quad
ABV: 10.5%
Flavor Text: A strong, dark ale with notes of raisins, figs, and caramel, and a pronounced “dark rum” character. Deceptively smooth at 10.5% alcohol, this strong ale is ideal as an after-dinner sipping brew.
