  • Pours clear with a couple of inches of pure white, pillow-like foam that has average staying. Lacing is thin but sticks in spite of itself.

    Aroma has spice, esters, and a candy sweat side. Grape and yeast add complimentary scents.

    Taste is sweet and banana up front. The middle leans towards the Belgian yeast with a beginning of spice. The end carries the spice adding grape to round out into the finish. Alcohol hits late too.

    Medium body with an above average amount of carbonation. Dries the palate slightly.

    Not a bad Saison, possibly a bit too sweet and a touch high on the alcohol side. Outside of these distractors, the aroma and taste are quite nice. Beef up the attenuation to dry out the sweetness and this becomes a home run.
