Petite Saison

In the realm of Belgian beers, or those inspired by them, conditioning and carbonation are crucial. Traditionally bottled in thick glass to achieve high effervescence, we aimed to replicate this in a convenient, single-serving can. Brewed with a blend of pilsner malt and wheat, lightly hopped with noble hops, and fermented bone dry in stainless steel using a classic Belgian yeast, Athame is 100% naturally carbonated, featuring one of our favorite Brett strains added just before canning. We’re thrilled with how this turned out. This is an absolute summer crusher when you’re reaching for a beer that is different from something hoppy or your standard lager.

Aromas are yeast / Brett, malt, citrus, herbs and dry grain. Flavors are similar to nose. Mildly tart up front with a little fruity sweet in back. A bit thin with good carbonation. Cool label!

16 oz. can, pours a hazy blonde with a tiny white head. Nose expectedly light, with subtle rustic farmhouse notes and toasted grains. Flavour is pretty faint, with gentle tartness, gentle bugginess, and toasted grains. Under-carbed, which doesn’t help this kind of beer. It’s alright but pretty underwhelming for HM.

Pale, some haze, medium head. There's some brett and a bit of pedio. The body is light, with some more brett, a bit of pear note, a bit of tartness, something a bit odd, on the ferm. Pedio is definitely stronger on the palate. It's not bad, but something not quite right.

Undated can drunk 10/7/25.
Highly carbonated, lightly hazy, white gold, with a massive, dense, well-retained, white head.
Stone fruit and tropical fruit rind, with a hint of band aid from the Brett is front and center, but the Sacch. makes itself known quickly, adding big pear and black pepper. Crusty, rustic grains add a pinch of honey and biscuity crustiness.
Lemony sugar cookies, though not quite that sweet, with fruity Brett and a bit of oiliness on the end. Tingly, tart acids balance crusty, chewy, rustic grains. The acid is a bit poignant/forceful; just a bit. I wish things were a little more rounded and soft like the nose. But, it's a whole hell of a lot of flavor and complexity for 3.5%, so I'm not complaining.
