750 mL, corked & caged from Green’s, Ponce, Atlanta, GA, USA.
To be perfectly honest, I was a little wary of this beer. I’m not a huge fan of sour/Brett beers and I was wondering exactly how this would sit with me. On tasting the beer I was delighted that I tried it.
Rather light, golden yellow pour with plenty of large head and nice lace. Looks very good. Light, lemon funk in the nose.
Taste is super. Nice refeshing combo of Saison funk, with some bitter Brett. A little citrus but it is all in check. Very mild.
This beer is nowhere near as aggressive as one might expect and it some ways drinks like a Hennepin that has been slightly ramped up – the first Imperial Saison??!! I’d even go as far as to suggest that this could be a crossover beer for newbies!
Anyway, I really enjoyed the mildly ramped funk and I thought this was an excellent, superbly drinkable brew.
