MOLSON RAFTMAN

Doesn’t Unibroue brew these nowadays? Anyhow. Drenched in smoked whiskey malt, delicately smooth-bodied Belgian-styled pale ale caresses yeast-infested honeyed wheat sweetness with peated wood burnt overtones, banana-vanilla variance, and bread crust grove. Peculiar soda-like effervescence quite different from most mountain water-based Molson beers.

Deservedly celebrating fifteenth anniversary, pearly meringue-headed golden-hazed Belgian-styled strong pale ale works in stages. Initial banana-ripened butterscotch-toffee conflux brakes for dry lemony hop simmer, bringing green apple and curacao orange tartness along for the ride. Mint-tinged white pepper spicing then reinforces clove-coriander sweetness ’til creamy candi-sugared vanilla finish encapsulates airy citric indulgence.
