Sobremesa
Belgian-style strong ale.
$42.00
750mlAbout
Full-bodied with spice, yeast complexity, warmth. Rich, expressive, properly serious. The bottle for after-dinner sipping.
The grain bill is Pilsner and chit malt from Voyager in NSW. Hops are light touch by design. Aramis, Fuggles and Tettnang go in just enough to land the beer at 34 IBU, there to balance rather than to lead.
It ferments in puncheons on Sobremesa's house mixed culture and stays there for four months before packaging. A further stretch in the bottle lets it carbonate naturally and settle. Both the wood and the wild yeast get time to work rather than being rushed.
At 9.5 percent it drinks warmer than most tripels. Pour it into a proper glass and let it lose the fridge chill for a few minutes. It is built for sharing after a meal, not for a session.
