It's my pleasure to present a collaboration with The Brewer's Art, a Baltimore institution that helped to pioneer the Belgian beer movement in the States. Brewed with a combination of Spelt & Rye, accented with a blend of Heather, Honeysuckle, and Hyssop. The result is a rustic farmhouse ale displaying earthy tones & floral characteristics while maintaining intricate balance. (Description provided by company)

Comments
Might be full of itself, but rightly so
Debutante is a Biere de Garde style ale brewed by Stillwater and Brewer’s Art breweries. According to the bottle (which has a really cool looking label, might I add), the ale is brewed with heather, honeysuckle, and hyssop. It is golden in color, with a fresh and somewhat sweet smell to it. The honeysuckle is prominent in the nose. The flavor is extremely well balanced- sweet, but not overly so; fruit flavors intermixed with some slight earthy notes. It almost tastes like a Belgian tripel. Mouthfeel is full, but still refreshing- a great warm weather beer.
