Bottle text & Info:
Our Spring Saison is light blonde in color with a fresh hoppiness and a wild and rustic Brettanomyces character. Lighter in color and alcohol than our Saison Rue, yet equally complex in its own way. Perfect for warmer weather and Spring celebrations.
Tasting Notes:
Pours a vivid goldenrod with a huge, creamy, pure white top that settles quickly leaving craggy chunks of lacing behind. Smells expressly of yeast - soap and funky barnyard bretts with some very, very subtle lemon and apple notes. Creamy mouthfeel with balance all over the board here. The esther and phenols are on the forefront with tart pear, green apple, sour lemon intermingling with clove and cardamom notes. Finishes with a lovely, leafy hop grit that brings you back for more. This was not in our ordering system and i got sufficiently crawled for ordering it (wrist slap*). F. it. well worth it. By far the most authentic replication I've had from the Bruery and my favorite so far.
