Description:
Fallen Angel Golden Strong Ale, brewed on 6-6-6, is named in the tradition of Belgian golden strong ales--after the devil himself.
Midnight Sun's Fallen Angel Golden Strong Ale is a traditional Belgian-style golden ale--beautiful gold in color with tiny, conniving bubbles forming a very thick, meticulous head. Effervescent and crisp, this seriously delicious elixir tempts the palate with apple (oh so Garden of Eden), pear and a little earthy mustiness. Fallen Angel captivates your senses with its lightness and brightness while its 8% ABV strength breathes fire into your soul, warming you from the inside out.
Angel-like in appearance, the devil is in its strength.
With its introduction in 2006 and its immediate cult following, Fallen Angel is now brewed and released about once a year.

Appearance - 3.5
Pours 1/2 inch of white head that settles fairly quickly into a thick ring. The beer is a very light orange color and is clear.
Aroma - 4.5
A very fruity aroma, I can definitely make out apple and pear, as well as the Belgian yeast.
Mouthfeel - 4.0
It's fuller than it appears, I'd say it's medium in body. It's crisp and has some astringency from the carbonation.
Taste - 4.0
The apple flavor hits first followed by some funkiness typical of a Belgian ale. Pear follows along with some earthy hops. The hops are in very small quantities, so they don't stand out as much.
Overall - 4.0
Certainly tastes like a Belgian. Lots of fruitiness and nice and crisp. The beer was good, though I don't think Belgian Strong Pale's are my style.
