A French saison yeast plays nicely with New Zealand’s fruity Nelson Sauvin hops, creating rich flavor and mouthfeel that briskly transition into a dry and faintly tart finish.

On Tap at PreFunk Boise Clear deep orange with a sandy head. A slightly more hoppy and bitter saison. I thin the farmhouse flavros are nice..and they are in there, but by them selves would hav ebeen better. Decent beer, just muddy flavored.
