We at Crooked Stave find solace playing in the Colorado mountains and possess a great pride for the place we call home. Paying homage to our great state, we brewed Colorado WildSage, a tart Brett Saison incorporating fresh herbs, including white sage and lemongrass. Brewed with all Colorado ingredients in order to deliver a little bit of the high country to everyone who decides to share in this beer with us. Unfiltered and naturally wild, we package each can with a small amount of yeast to maintain maximum freshness for wherever life's adventures take you.

Pour is a cloudy yellow with a large white head. Aroma is defiantly a herbal sage with not much else making it past that. Flavor is again herbal sage with some yeast esters and a little tongue punching bitterness. A very herbal and rustic saison, it's just that the sage kind of overpower everything else.

The flavour is moderate to light sour, with a smooth dry fresh crisp yeasty, light fresh fruit palate. Medium bodied with average carbonation.

(Keg at Sori Taproom, 20171031) The beer poured amber and nearly clear. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had spiciness, herbalness, lemongrass and fruitiness. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were fruitiness, spiciness, lemongrass, lightly earth and low bitterness. Aftertaste was fruity, spicy and bitter. A little bit too spicy but otherwise ok brew.
