Here's another one I'm trying for the first time after putting it on tap. A 30 liter keg, and on the expensive side. We're doing 10 oz pours, in order to use the glassware. I hope it catches on.
Beautiful saison. Bright golden, highly hazed, slim ivory head.
Aromatics, light lemon and orange, delicate spice. Lovely. Particularly peppery, fragrantly fruity.
Taste: Mmmm, Meaty mouthfeel, while being watery enough for the style. Luscious citrus fruit dominates, with spice kicking in behind. Starts easy, gets more complex sitting in the mouth. Slight bitterness. Growing spice. Then turning just a little sweet.
Very interesting beer, this. Incredibly complex and refreshing, all at once.
Keeping it short and simple, all I need to say is: it's good, drink it.

Where can I find this beer? Blue Nile? Sorry..maybe a dumb question. I'm a freak for anything Saison. That one looks authentic, refreshing, and tasty!
It should be in finer retail outlets, as well. Zipp's Blue Max, Cellars, Ale Jail, etc.Paper-wrapped 750 mls. On tap, right now, only at the Blue Nile.
keep it up brotha...I'll have to make it to the south side soon to see ya and your tasty selection! Cheers,
Nick
