On the fourth day of Beermas I went and bought for me
Four avian hallucinations
Three French magicians
Two love ya dearlies
And the simplest answer there could be
Caleya has appeared more than once in these pages, pretty much always in lighter styles. Hostia is a nice Dubbel with a psychodelic label that makes you imagine wails coming from it. That's a calling bird of some kind, and you might even think you see more than one.
It's a toasty warm brown dubbel, with a touch of banana aroma. Not too much head, but it's resistant. The flavor is very Belgiany, although without the aftertaste that stifles my fondness for that particular set of beers. There's a little tang and sour in there, but it's a soft and round feeling beer, with a tiny bit of banana wrapped around it. That fruitiness builds over time, and it's a more syrupy drink than many of my recent ones. It has a nice holiday kind of flavor, something of a fruit cake in fact. The weight of the alcohol just makes it like a worthwhile fruitcake instead of a cheap sanitized industrial one.
