Freestyle Ale is a Belgian white ale brewed with real orange peel and coriander but unlike the classic style, which has been around for centuries, we don't use wheat. It is a light, crisp, and refreshing ale with a sweet, fruity taste. This beer has a light golden color with a hint of citrus and spice on the nose. The taste is a balance of subtle sweetness and tartness with a hint of banana and cloves. The mouthfeel is light and refreshing with a slight sweetness and the finish is smooth and clean. This light-bodied beer is 4.0% ABV and has 20 IBUs.
FLAVOR PAIRING
food pairing suggestions
Citrus Ginger Stir Fry Linguine
This Citrus Ginger Stir Fry Linguine uses our Ginger Stir Fry Seasoning which features citrus tartness and the warming spicy character of ginger. Cream cheese adds a creaminess that balances these two flavors by letting the citrus shine through while taming the ginger.
This is both a "Complementary" and "Cut" pairing with Freestyle ale. The citrus notes in this dish complement the citrus backbone in the beer and the crisp finish of the beer cuts through the fattiness of the cream cheese in the dish to cleanss the pallet for the next bite.
NASHVILLE HOT CHICKEN SEASONING
Hot chicken or Nashville hot chicken is a type of fried chicken that is a local specialty of Nashville, Tennessee. Traditionally Nashville Hot Chicken is typically fried but we like it grilled or baked.
This is a classic contrasting pairing. The refreshing Freestyle Ale will extinguish the heat from this dish without muting its bold flavors.
