It is a beer for brewers who want Belgian complexity without jumping straight into a huge dark strong ale.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAbbey Lantern is named for the glow this beer should bring to the glass: copper-brown color, raisin and plum-like malt depth, gentle caramel, subtle clove-pepper yeast spice, and a smooth finish that keeps the next sip easy. Amber Belgian candi sugar helps build authentic character while keeping the body from turning heavy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis extract version keeps the brew day shorter with Pilsen Light DME and a focused specialty-grain steep for Belgian malt depth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCompanion version:\u003c\/strong\u003e This is the extract with grains version.
