In April of 2011, a group of Allagash brewers flew to Belgium to brew a beer with our friends at Brasserie De La Senne. We called it Very Speciale Belge and it was hoppy and delicious.

This year, De La Senne came to us, for a reincarnation of the same beer. It is bright amber in appearance with aromas of peach, tropical fruit and a slight malt character. Tropical fruit continues through the flavor, finishing with a pleasant hop bitterness. The yeast, a blend of two Belgian strains, expresses itself with some earthy and peppery notes. 6.4 ABV.
