Beer #397 - 961 Beer - Brewmaster’s Select 01 - Lebanese Pale Ale

And another beer from Lebanon, the second to feature on this blog from the 961 microbrewery. This has a rather interesting list of ingredients including za’atar, sumac, mint, sage, anise, and chamomile. The mint and sage run quite prominently through the beer which is quite unlike anything else I've ever tried. The aroma is quite hoppy but the flavour is dominated by the mint and sage with a gentle spicing also evident. There is a lot going on in this beer and it really made me think about the flavours. By the end of it I really couldn't decide how much I liked it but it's perfectly drinkable and worth trying for the novelty value alone!
