It just seemed fitting that we make a New Holland beer this week's selection, given all the time we spent writing about the brewery this week. We're going back to the sure thing that is their High Gravity series. Both Night Tripper and Pilgrim's Dole are previous "BotW" selections. Joining those high gravity selections today is Black Tulip. This is a sweet-malted Trippel-style ale brewed with Belgian ale yeast and beet sugar. Beet sugar is a common ingredient for brewmaster John Haggerty and it gives the yeast a little something to snack on during fermentation, creating more alcohol and giving the beer a denser consistency.

Sometimes we come across a beer that not only puts hair on our chest, it removes said curlicues. Such is the case with this week's "BotW" selection.
