Green Flash Saison Diego Farmhouse Ale
Green Flash Saison Diego. I think that's French for "season of the whale's vagina."Green Flash Brewing, San Diego, CA. Ale Brewed with Spices, Farmhouse Ale, Unfiltered, Alc. by Vol. ungiven.
For an unfiltered beer, it's awfully clear. Bright yellow, big head that slips down to nil with a quickness.
Aroma: Spice is on top of things, initially, backed up with citric notes, and Belgian funkification.
Taste: Crisp, refreshing bite, clean, smooth. Light bodied, with a mild hop bitterness. Light bodied, easy drinking. Bright citrus character reveals itself, distinguished from the spice.
Good hot weather quencher here. Very toss-back-able, although I feel it may be slightly strong, perhaps higher than 7%, but not much higher, could even be 8+? (No, it's 4.2%!)
I like this. Good beer, and I can drink it.
