Brewery Ommegang Rare Vos Amber Ale

Hello beer lovers and welcome to another edition of the NorCal Beer Blog’s brew review.

Tonight’s featured beer is Brewery Ommegang Rare Vos Amber Ale.

From the Brewery Ommegang website: “Ale Brewed with Orange Peel, Grains of Paradise, Coriander. Belgian-Style Café Ale. Mellow, Fruity, Spicy. Every day we race towards something. This should be one of them. Rare Vos was made to reward your victories.”

Let’s get started!

Appearance: Pours a hazy copper color, looks like honey with a large white head and nice lacing.

Aroma: Sweet citrus, caramel and bready malts, Belgian yeast, floral and spice notes.

Taste: Caramel and bready malts, citrus and grassy hop flavors, spice and Belgian yeast.

Overall: Rich and refreshing, Brewery Ommegang Rare Vos Amber Ale is delicious.  At 6.5% ABV is very drinkable and worth a try.  The alcohol is very well hidden on this well executed Belgian-Style Amber Ale.

Cheers!
