A 7.5% Belgian Style Ales Style Belgian Ale from Belgium,usually available at The Blackfriars Tavern in Great Yarmouth, FB: BlackfriarsTavern
Especially created and brewed in 1981, for the celebration of the 3 yearly
hops festivities in Poperinge, our hoppy, golden-bronze, ale Hommelbier is
worldwide considered to be a tribute to the art of beer craftsmanship.Hommel is the local abbreviation of humulus, the botanical name for the hop
plant. Poperings Hommelbier is made from a blend of winter, summer and
aromatic pale malts, soft water, from our brewery’s own well; Brewers’ Gold
and Challenger hops, both grown in Poperinge; and top-fermented with a very
attenuative own grown yeast that precipitates quickly. It is primed with
white sugar, and re-yeasted for bottle-conditioning.This ale pours a cloudy straw yellow, with a tight and fleeting white head
that left decent lacing. ThereÕs a light but inviting green hop, yeast and
pale malt aroma.Palate entry is full-bodied, but refreshingly spicy and thirst quenching at
colder temperatures. Mid-palate reveals citrus orange rind and grapefruit
notes along with a honeysuckle sweetness that is nicely balanced by a solid
Hallertau hop bill. It also has a late, spicy, cumin-seed, dryness, again
from the hops.The carbonation is light, small fresh bubbles Dough and yeast in the finish.
