Commercial Description:
We believe in Karma. We suspect most of you do, too. It truly is a global concept. Very simply put, "you get what you give." Inspired by this principle and the wonderful farmhouse and pale ales of Belgium, we've created Karma Ale, a decidedly fruity and estery ale, intricate in body and nose, all driven by a unique Belgian yeast strain. Remember, good things DO happen to good people. Here's to being good!

12 oz bottle. Pours a golden color, with a white head. The aroma is somewhat fruity. Flavor is the same, with noticeable hops and yeast flavors. Overall this is pretty refreshing - but unfortunately slightly forgettable.

Pours a nice deep golden color with a nice white head. The nose is nice and fruity. Peaches and bananas with a nice malty undertone. Palate is very light with a definite banana on the front. Finishes crisp. A great quaffer. Not comparable to a true belgian but good in its own right.

Bottle pours a hazy burnt amber with a large, but short lived head and not much lace. The aroma is hops, yeast, and citrus. The flavor is yeasty, fruity, some hops, sweet, and mild, but certainly not bad. The palate is medium and cleansing. Overall, this is an interesting effort. Under rated in my opinion.

Beer pours a amber color. The head is thin and white, no staying power, no lacing. The nose is very light. The flavor is light and watery. This beer is a complete miss, I thought it was a Belgium but I would call it a amber lager.

Sweet eggnog nose. Deep amber, smallish head. Slight maltiness, with some tart/sourness leading into bitterness. Feels heavier bodied initially, but finishes light. Interesting beer, could use maybe a little more alcohol? Maybe more carbonation? Bottle conditioning? Seems like a beer with more potential that is not quite realized.

Kinda sour. Not the greatest. Has a decent nose with some florals, a little dry at the end but more like a wine than a beer. If I ever try to convert a chard wine drinker to beer, this will be that beer.
