Brooklyn Local 1


Had this at red bones with a few coworkers after a long Saturday of work. For a 750 of beer it was reasonably priced, only a few bucks more then it costs in the store. Id had a long day at work, my 4th or 5th 12 hour day in a row.

first impressions: cloudy orange... don't remember much smell

taste: bit of a bite at first, then malty/sweet with a little sour flavor you can definitely taste the alcohol but unlike many strong beers it is balanced nicely here

overall: great This is an amazing beer. Its a strong Belgian beer, but also has a bit of a bite at first. I had heard about this a while ago and was looking to try it, and I'm glad I did today. I didn't think I was a fan of belgian strong ales, but this is balanced quite nicely.
