The name Pyrus originates from the genus of the pear tree. Pyrus is our Fall and Winter saison brewed with pear juice, whole white peppercorns, and the zest of fresh oranges. Pyrus pours a hazy golden hue, with aromas of pear, citrus, and spice. A perfect compliment to seasonal fare.

Sampled on draft at the House of 1000 beers this beer poured a hazy pale yellow color with a medium sized foamy white head that lingered and left good lacing. The aroma was bretty, musty, orange and a bit of pepper. The flavor was brett, bread, must, honey, orange, Windex and pepper. Long finish of brett, bread, honey,orange and Windex. A touch astringent and turns a bit dry at the very end. Medium body. Nice.

Bottle @ home, courtesy of jcnielsen. Thanks Justin! Pours a hazy yellow appearance with a white head. Big white peppery, zesty citrusy, dry straw/herbal aroma. Somewhat juicy, white peppery, grainy/grassy, straw, a bit tangy flavor with a dry, peppery finish. Overall, not bad.

Barcade, Philadelphia tap ($6) Pours hazy gold with a white head. Aroma is fruity, with farmhouse funk and a light bit of spicing. Taste is a little bit sweet and a tad dry. Fruit flavors come out well. Not too hoppy. Nice body and easily drinkable. This is a somewhat run of the mill saison, but it was good nonetheless.

12 oz tulip at Martin City Brewing Company in Martin City, Missouri. The pour is a lightly hazed orange golden with a well formed one inch white head. Pretty in the glass. The aroma is primarily the clove and earthy yeast, along with straw and grass. The taste follows the nose, primarily the yeast clove notes, layered on top of a grassy straw body. There is a hint of sweetness, though it is decently managed. Pepper notes come out a bit as the beer warmed. The palate is medium bodied, slightly below average carbonation, and clove in the finish. Decent, straight forward, Saison.

Bomber from Wine & Cheese in Clayton, MO. Pours hazy gold with a creamy white head. Aroma is moderately earthy and peppery. Hint of citrus. Med body. Flavor is peppery, earthy, and has a bit of zest that pops up mostly in the finish. Struggling to find pear, but the other flavors are so zingy I’m not sure I’ve got it. This is a really tasty beer, and seems pretty much to style.

Pour is a hazy gold with a average white head. Aroma is citrus fruit with some pepper and banyard yeasty funk. Flavor is a very bitter citrus fruit with more of the funk and pepper. Could use a bit more of that funkyness but this is a very easy drinking saison with a citrus fruit hiding in the backround.
