3 French Hens - A Festive Belgian Dark Ale
Brewed in the heart of California, 3 French Hens is The Bruery's acclaimed take on the rich, spicy Belgian dark strong ale style. At a celebratory 10.5% ABV, it delivers complex flavors ideal for festive gatherings.
Pouring a deep mahogany, the beer tantalizes with inviting aromas of ripe dark fruits, holiday spices, and a whisper of oak. Each sumptuous sip overflows with notes of plums, dates, brown sugar, and candied orange peel framed by the warmth of cinnamon, nutmeg, and clove. Aging in premium oak barrels bestows a smooth, almost winey character with hints of vanilla and toasted coconut.
Despite its robustness, 3 French Hens remains dangerously drinkable. The rich, creamy mouthfeel complements rather than overwhelms the bold flavors in perfect harmony.
A perennial favorite, this Belgian-inspired ale garners impressive ratings year after year - currently 86 on BeerAdvocate and 4/5 on Untappd. Smooth enough for the craft novice yet complex enough for the seasoned enthusiast, 3 French Hens is an outstanding option for low-key hangouts and lively holiday parties.
Whether reuniting with loved ones or celebrating with friends, raise a glass of this indulgent yet refreshingly drinkable strong ale. 3 French Hens promises to bring a touch of spicy Belgian decadence to any festive occasion.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is all your inventory online?
We try to keep the store as updated as possible, but we always get new shipments. So if you don't see what you are looking for, send an email, and we'll check to see what Moose is hiding in the back room.
Why is beer available as in-store pick-up only?
Our temperature-controlled storage systems preserve beer's quality and flavor until pickup. By maintaining precise refrigeration, we protect each batch's unique characteristics and ensure customers receive the freshest possible product.
However, due to the challenges of maintaining consistent temperature during shipping, we exclusively offer in-store pickup for our craft beers.
What is the difference between Tequila & Mezcal?
Tequila is a type of mezcal, much like how scotch and bourbon are types of whiskey.
Tequila and mezcal are both types of agave-based spirits that are popular in Mexico, but there are some key differences between the two. Tequila is made exclusively from the blue agave plant, which is primarily grown in the area surrounding the city of Tequila, about 40 miles northwest of Guadalajara. Mezcal, on the other hand, can be made from any type of agave plant, and is often made using traditional, labor-intensive methods.
One of the most noticeable differences between tequila and mezcal is their flavor. Tequila is typically smooth and subtle, with hints of fruit and spices, while mezcal has a more complex, smoky flavor that comes from the roasting of the agave hearts before they are fermented and distilled.
Another difference between the two spirits is their production process. Tequila is typically made using modern industrial methods, while mezcal is often produced using traditional techniques that have been passed down for generations. This can give mezcal a more authentic, artisanal character.
In general, tequila is considered to be a more refined and sophisticated spirit, while mezcal is often viewed as a more rustic and traditional drink. Both are popular in Mexico and are enjoyed around the world, so the best way to decide which one you like is to try them both and see which one suits your tastes.
