Caracole

Brewer: Brasserie Caracole
Country: Begium
Style: Amber Ale

I found this at US Liquor and Syrdeks. A great artisanal Wallonian ale with a honey amber/orange color, and thick light tan head that fades slowly with a good lace that sticks around. Complex floral wheatiness with spicy, sweet aromas gives a refreshing cool feel. Fairly fruity, orange, spicy and hoppy. Chalky yeast bitterness and tartness rounds it off in the finish. There was lot of yeast in the bottle. It has a good hop balance, slightly dry, toward the finish.
