8.1/10 β€” Appearance 8 Aroma 8 Flavor 8 Texture 8 Overall 8.5
Poured from a 500 ml bottle.
Aroma is fruity with white wine notes, stone fruit, grapes, some citrus and hints of tropical fruit. Light cracker malt notes and hints of oak and alcohol. Light herbal, earthy funkiness with a touch of a grassy note.
Pours a hazy, slightly murky, golden-orange color with a medium sized, fairly thick, pillowy, white head that recedes quickly to the edges where it lingers. Light lacing and small legs.
Flavor is a bit acidic with light cracker malt notes. Moderate bitterness and light alcohol notes. Moderate vermouth notes with some green grape, stone fruit, tropical citrus and a bit of an herbal, grassy note. Light earthy, herbal, peppery phenolics notes. Faint oak notes.
Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth.
Overall, a really nice barrel-aged saison. The SARA funk works well with the vermouth notes. A bit acidic, but not overly so and it works with the rest of the beer. I like vermouth so this beer is right up my alley.

Bottle. Pours hazy yellow orange, small off white head, decent lacing. Aroma is herbal, gin, vermouth, bugs, hint of stonefruit, lime. Flavor is light tart, light plus funk. Fairly strong barrel character. Medium body, soft carbonation. Interesting.
