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!

9/19/07 From the bottle. Aroma is Peppery phenols with sweet malt forward that has a light roasted/biscuit character. There is some light hop flora and pear notes in the background. Appearance is clear gold with a good off-white head. Flavor is faintly sour and sweet malt forward with some Munich graham cracker character and very low bittering hops. Mouthfeel is medium/low bodied with a low carb texture. Overall, very good and extremely easy drinking.

Had this beer on 9/27/2006. Aroma is a Belgian malt scent with hop tones. Color is orange/brown low carbonation and a thin head. Taste is light, sweet and crisp. Starting with a light/medium body it goes down with a light crisp feel. Finish is a mild malt flavor and a faint hop flavor.

Pours a slightly burnt apricot color w/ a short fused pritzy froth. Head reduces rapibly to reveal a silky cnopy w/ thin ring. Aromas of crispy sweet malts. Medium nectar w/ ample residual effers. The texture is fiberous like a suit from the Miami Vice days. Nicely balanced, crisp, and....well I can’t really say refreshing. Theres an anoying herbal antagonist that is discovered quickly. Other nuances of nectarines, grapes, tangerine, and floral perfume. The finish is bittered w/ a mild acidic component.

Pours a clear amber with a fizzy white head. Has hints of apples, some caramel, and a little hops. Carbonation is pretty low, and finishes like a carbonation glass of wine.

Truly good beer for good people. Amber with a light head. Sweet bread and caramel on the nose. Medium bodied candied malt flavor with caramel and lightly hopped for balance. I love this with a three cheese tomato pizza.

Fairly clear, dark golden-amber body. Frothy, rocky white head that leaves behind patchy, thick, spider webs of lacing. The aroma is bready and yeasty, with caramel malts and light white fruits. There is very little hoppiness in the nose. The flavor shows fruity yeast, pale malts and dry grains. It has a Pils-like quality to its flavor profile, though it is considerably more yeasty. The body is medium in stature with a smooth consistency. There is a faint bit of astringency in the short finish. Decent brew, but far from special.

hazy amber, whispy beige head, touch of lace, sweet spicy aroma with a touch of carmel and a hint of fusel alcohols and just a touch of farmhouse funk, mild bitter spiced flavor on a nice dry malt base, not a whole lot of complexity but a really nice drinking beer
