RateBeer.com -- Correct Four Peaks Idle HandsFour Peaks Idle Hands

Description:
A pale, straw-colored ale that originated in Belgium and was made famous by the popular brand Duvel. It has the color of a pilsner but maintains the complex flavors of a Belgian ale. Namely a slight spicy, phenolic aroma mixed with a sweet malt nose. We added a small amount of Grains of Paradise to the boil. Grains of Paradise are the seeds of an African pepper plant. In the beer they impart a spicy flavor not unlike a mix of coriander and white pepper. Idle Hands is also quite strong, but drinks much smoother than its strength, the reason being an extended lagering time. Idle Hands was stored at freezing temperatures for two months, allowing the time and temperature to mellow the flavors and strength into a smooth, eminently drinkable beer.
