From the Brewers
From Mike at Brugge Brasserie in Broad Ripple, Indianapolis:

updated 12/13/12 - subject to availability
please bear with us while we move our brewing equipment. great things are soon to come!
flight of 3 beers 7
black belgian black ale reminds the drinker of the chocolate within dark malts, leaving aside bitter astringency often associated with darker beer 6%
tripel de poirot a slightly darker example of our tripel de ripple. notes of vanilla & perhaps pears 10% limit of 2
reindeer games coriander, cinnamon, and allspice come to play in this belgian dark ale brewed especially for the holiday season 6.0%
GUEST TAPS
victory lager perfectly balanced, this authentic version of a german helles-style lager satisfies gloriously. lean, german malts and fine european hops offer subtle harmony 4.8%
against the grain chamomile tow belgian blonde brewed with pilsner, aromatic and wheat malt and crystal and czech saaz hops. corriander and chamomile were added in the boil and then the beer was “dryhopped” with more chamomile for a floral, spicy and earthy flavor and aroma 4.9%
against the grain gnag reflex sour brown ale with red tart cherries. tangy, malty, slightly sour and downright weird. over 10 pounds per barrel of oregon red tart cherries were added to the beer, giving it a sweet and fruity finish 6%
flying dog gonzo imperial porter mysteriously dark with a rich malty body, intense roasted flavors, and a surprisingly unique hop kick. 9.2%
sixpoint bengali tiger english-style ipa with a hoppy snap up front, and a balanced malt finish 6.4%
