Press Release:

(San Diego, CA) – Here in San Diego, the nights are getting chilly and Karl Strauss Brewing is almost ready to release our fall seasonal, Fullsuit Belgian Brown Ale. This beer is our spin on a nutty and smooth brown ale, warm fermented with a Belgian yeast strain adding a spicy and peppery complexity. We condition this beer on French oak chips, giving the finished beer a subtle vanilla and oak finish—it’s almost like a graham cracker in a glass. Fullsuit Belgian Brown will be available across California in 12oz bottles and on draft, beginning November 1, through February, 2013.

Fullsuit Belgian Style Brown Ale

Fullsuit is brewed with the changing seasons in mind. Firm toasted malt and roasted nut flavors are underpinned by a hint of vanilla that comes from aging the beer on French oak. Belgian ale yeast adds a peppery, fruity character to the beer’s slightly dry and warming finish, making it perfect for the (kind of) cold Southern California winter.
