Arabier
Beer lovers asked for a pale companion to Oerbier, and the name had to start with an A: hence the macaw on the label and the Arabic 'drink cool, 10 °C' on the bottle. Fruity and bitter in the aroma from Whitbread Golding Variety hops, dry on the palate with a Nugget bitterness that balances the pale malt, long and bitter in the finish. Dry-hopped, 8%.
Tasting Notes
AI-generated sensory profile for Arabier
Warmer than most — 12–14°C. The fruity esters, spice and warming alcohol need room to breathe.
The wide mouth and heavy base promote head formation and channel rich aromatics toward the nose. Traditional for Belgian strong ales.
