As I near the end of my journey through the beers of
Adelbert’s Brewery, I now turn my attention to their Philosophizer. This Saison
or Farmhouse Ale comes in with an ABV of 7.8% and 36 IBU. I recently tried the
gin barrel version of this ale, so let’s see how the standard compares.

Commercial Description:
Gold Medal Saison from Best of Craft Beer Awards
2014 Silver Medal from Best Little Brewfest in Texas
Bronze Medal from 2016 Commonwealth Cup
THE ALE:
This smooth ale tastes citrusy with yeasty notes and a hint of peppery spice. Its dry
finish and mild carbonation make it perfect for pairing with grilled chicken,
rich fish dishes, and cheeses like camembert and brie.
THE STORY:
Philosophizer was a common term used to describe Del. He often came up with the perfect
solution to a complex problem while drinking a beer and watching the sunset.
Don’t be surprised when you enter into deep philosophical debates after opening
a Philosophizer. Just pop one open, pour, sip, and ponder.
