This pale ale is brewed with Saaz and Challenger hops. It’s unfiltered, unpasteurised and goes through secondary fermentation in the bottle. Taras Boulba is an ill-fated fictional Russian story which Belgians adapted about a Flemish man who marries a French speaking woman, thus angering his father.
