Version two of our Gin and Tonic inspired saison, botanical notes provided by Juniper berries, zest from Lemongrass and New Zealand Motueka hops with an underlying Saison yeast spice. sounds wrong, but it works (honest).

Bottle split at Bropeys thanks to Leighton, 20/06/15. Lightly hazed golden orange with a decent beige covering. Nose is pissy citric rinds, tangerine, lemon, straw, light spice, faint yeast strokes. Taste comprises lemon rinds, orange, straw, spice, light herbal notes, yeast esters.. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. Ok saison - a little simple but the boxes are ticked adequately.

Bottle thanks to Leighton. It pours lightly hazy gold with a small white head. Small gushing action. The nose is soft, fragrant, toasty, cracker, pepper, milk loaf and soft fruits. The taste is crisp, bitter, bitter-sweet, peppery, g&t, lactic, cracker, doughy, straw and grain with a dry finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Solid stuff.

Bottle shared during Snoopy’s 30th. Bought somewhere in London. Gusher! Pours clear gold with a big white head that settles into a cream. The aroma has dried wheat, pale grains, old lemon, subtle leather and hay. Light to medium sweet flavor with a hit of lemongrass, herbs, pale bread, white sugar. Medium bodied with lively carbonation. Lightly warming on the finish, some further pale bread, lemon peel, light grassy bitterness, some spice. Not bad overall.

Hazy gold beer with a good white head. Light palate, airy. Fine mild carbonation. Nice lemonegrass, mild lemon a good floralness. Blends well with the mellow juniper spice. Whisper of citrus. Finishes airy and crisp. Light lemon and floral aftertaste. Nice beer!
