Ithaca Cold Front

Submitted by Dan on December 7, 2009 – 8:05 am No Comment

Ithaca Cold FrontFrom Ithaca Beer Co. - Cold Front is our Belgian-style Amber Ale brewed in autumn to keep us inspired as the days grow shorter and the nights colder. It’s brewed with European Malts and hops and fermented with a legendary Belgian “Farmhouse” yeast. Savor its deep russet color, rich flavor accented by slight herbal hoppiness, and definite spicy yeast character. Bundle up!

Ithaca Beer Co – Ithaca Cold Front – 12 oz. bottle poured into a goblet. 7.2% abv. From Ray in MA!

Appearance: Pours a dark brown with an off white pin stripe for head.

Aroma: Candi sugar, banana, bubble gum and cloves.

Taste: Banana, bready malt, cloves, spicy yeast and spicy hops.

Mouthfeel: Thick and slightly fizzy.

Overall: A very nice, balanced Belgian Ale. I could see the Winter/Holiday theme going on in this beer. Would go great with a piece of pumpkin pie for sure.
