LuLu was brewed in honor of the arrival of brewers Kyle's second daughter, Love, and is the second in a limited series. This beer blushes with additions of hibiscus, pink peppercorn, and pink rosebuds. An earthen tartness mingles with floral and tangerine aromas, and a slight warming at the back of theory rounds out this saison. It's good to meet you LuLu, welcome to the family.

12.7 oz bottle. Aroma is floral, dusty, lemony--very aromatic. Pours nearly clear light golden with faint pink undertones; has a thick pillowy white head with great retention. Taste runs the gamut from sweet, lightly tart, savory, finishing with a light bitterness. It’s floral and peppery as advertised; also, lemony, earthy, faint banana in the finish. Mouthfeel is a little foamy, a tad watery. I really like it.

Sampler at Beer Junction in West Seattle. There is a rose hue to the beer. Otherwise, this is one of this spiced Belgians rather than Saisons and its not that good of a Belgian. There is a bit of light rose water in flavor and aroma. Otherwise, slightly too sweet, seemed underattenuated. Slick feel to the beer, flabby not crisp, clean, bright and directed. Its not horrible but no interesting.

Draught. Cloudy yellow pour with thick head. Aroma is floral with a tropical note. Flavour is spicy with a pronounced pepper finish. Good on a sunny day.
