12 oz single from the brewery.
Slightly murky golden color with an impressive head that lingers. Some lace.
The nose and tastes are VERY organic and quite aggressive. Lots of serious grass and hay and a lot of bitterness. Some medicinal phenols to that come thorough in bursts, repeating the grass and organic feel.
Lots of rustic notes her that build in places to give quite a bitter beer. In other parts the beer drinks with a little more subtlety, but to be honest the beer is generally quite assertive.
Not a Saison that shows much restraint, but it does feel authentic and “rural”.
