Clouded, bright golden hue, slim ivory head.In the nose: Spice notes hit first, with fruity esters (citrus aplenty), and horse blanket coming up from the rear. It's getting funky in here, someone open a window.
In the mouth: Sourness from the start, fresh and zesty. Little bit of hops comes through, with a clean malt body, and the sour never stops. Lemon-y flavors sustain through the tasting, but barnyard hangs in for the long haul.
This is the kind of beer that New Belgium should be known for, it's the kind they do right. Go ahead and drink it.
This intriguing Saison took years to perfect. Our Brewers worked tirelessly to brew an exquisite French-style Saison, while our industry leading Wood Cellar Team worked to mature the perfect Sour Golden Ale in large, French oak barrels called Foeders. The best of both worlds is brought-out with this Sour Saison – a traditional barrel-aged sour ale artfully blended with a rustic, champagne-like Farmhouse Ale. With over 20 years of barrel-aged sour experience and the largest Wood Cellar in the United States, we’re proud to offer Sour Saison as our first ever year-round, traditional sour ale that’s so uniquely New Belgium, it can’t be replicated.
