Idle Hands Belgian Strong Golden Ale | Four Peaks Brewing Company
ABV: 7.5%
IBU: 25
Style: Belgian Blonde
Out of Production
Description: A pale, straw-colored ale that originated in Belgium and was made famous by Duvel. It has the color of a pilsner but maintains the complex flavors of a Belgian ale. Namely, a slightly spicy, phenolic aroma mixed with a sweet malt nose. We added a small amount of Grains of Paradise (seeds of an African pepper plant) to the boil. In the beer, they impart a spicy flavor, not unlike a mix of coriander and white pepper. Idle Hands is also quite strong but drinks smooth due to an extended lagering time. Idle Hands was stored at freezing temps for two months allowing the time and temperature to mellow the flavors and strengthen into a smooth, eminently drinkable beer.
