Our Thoughts
Today we have "Sans Frontire" which is a Belgian-Style Pale Ale that could be compared to a Strong Stout. With a ABV of 7 this is a beer that will get you pie-eyed in no time. This is for the fans of bitter beers. It's flavor is just less then a typical IPA. Grab a pint of this and take it nice and slow!
Belgian-Style Pale Ale
Belgian-style pale ales are characterized by low but noticeable hop bitterness, flavor, and aroma. Light to medium body and low malt aroma are typical. They are light amber to deep amber in color. Noble-type hops are commonly used. Low to medium fruity esters are evident in aroma and flavor. Low levels of phenolic spiciness from yeast byproducts may be perceived. Low caramel or toasted malt flavor is okay. Diacetyl should not be perceived. Chill haze is allowable at cold temperatures.
What does ABV/IBU mean?
ABV
ABV stands for Alcohol By Volume and is listed as a percentage and lets you know how much of your beer is alcohol and how much is other stuff.
IBU

Beer Fact of the Day
The metalic taste you get from a can is likely the smell or your tongue touching the can. This can be fixed by pouring the beer into a glass.
