Its taste is malty and caramel with a hint of roast; and its warm finish strikes a balance between dry and caramel characters with a hint of smoke.

Allagash Interlude

ABV: 9.5%

Allagash Brewing Co.

Allagash Interlude pushes the limits of beer. An innovative brewing process, special fermentations and French oak barrel aging all contribute to a beer that has remarkable wine-like qualities. Two yeast strains were used to create this unique Belgian-style strong ale. The first, a Belgian farmhouse yeast, establishes the flavor foundations of a classic Belgian-style ale. The second, a house strain of Brettanomyces yeast, brings it to the next level contributing an intriguing myriad of flavors including pear, apricot, graham cracker and bread crust. Finally, a portion of the Interlude is aged in French Merlot and Sirah oak barrels, which impart a distinctive vinous plum character and a drying, almost tannic finish. Try complementing its audacious character with food pairings such as sausages, salami, smoked meats, and bold cheeses. True to traditional Belgian-style brewing, Interlude is bottle conditioned and just prior to bottling, a fresh dose of sugar and yeast is added to the ‘still beer’ (at this stage there is no carbonation present). After bottling, the beer is aged in a warm room, where the fresh dose of yeast ferments the sugar and naturally carbonates the beer. This Belgian strong ale should also be tried with goose liver pate or a roast turkey with cider apples. An apple crisp is the perfect dessert to couple with this assertive brew.
