Fluxus '09 was brewed in the style of the traditional Saison. For our twist, we added sweet potatoes, black pepper and a generous amount of hops. Sweet potatoes not only enhance its pale orange appearance, they contribute significant body. Centennial hops produce a bold grapefruit aroma, which is followed by a mild, honeysuckle sweetness. The intensity of both the pepper and hops are felt throughout, leaving a lingering warmth on the tongue. Papya, citrus and pepper dominate the flavor profile.

Pours gold into a snifter. Bright white micro head with good retention recedes to coat surface. Coriander, wildflower and yeast aromas. Crisp with upfront sweet potato(?) and yeast turning to a lasting dry pepper finish.

Bottled. An unclear golden beer with a lazing beige head. The aroma has notes of fruits - especially peaches. The flavor is sweet with strong notes of fruits - especially peaches on a malty back ground, the finish is bitter though the peach note lingers.

Draught at Ginger Man, NYC
Hazy blond color. The aroma is lightly spicy, and dirty water. Good body strength, strange sweetness, the malt flavor is a bit flowery; correctly bitter. Nothing special.
