This beer was brewed for the Food Film Festival 2014 in Amsterdam. The theme of this years edition was fish, so we created a beer that would go well with fish. A saison spiced with dill and mustard seed, hopped with Nelson Sauvin hops.

33cl Bottle from De Bierkoning. Clear deep golden colour, white head. Aroma of dill, which profiles itself as lemon and some vanilla, a bit sweet, dry, hay. Flavour is medium-sweet, spicy, dill, sweet lemons, vanilla, citrus, dry, firm hoppy and almost herbal bitter finish, rye. Light to medium-bodied, somewhat over-carbonated. Tasty.

Bottle @ benzai. Hazy orange colour with a full sized white to off-white head. Smells ?mosterd dille saus? mostly. Maybe I should add some ham or cheese to this beer. Tastes dille, fresh, malts, bitter, yeast. Quite a dry mouthfeel. Thin to medium body, fizzy carbo. It?s a fun idea, but it doesn?t work out very well in the taste. Cool brew though!

Bottle @ home shared with Dutchdrebus. Clear orange color, huge white to off-white head. Smell and taste are a bit weird and indescribable. Can’t say I’ve ever tasted a beer that had these flavors. Sure there’s saison influence there, but the other flavors must come from the dill and mustard seed. Impressive brewing I must admit, but it’s not really my thing.

Bottle @ Cafe Derat. Hazy orange coloured, medium / large off-white head. Nose is grassy, fruity, dill, which I initially mistook for turkish delight, or maybe that’s the hops, who knows. Light malty. Pleasant aroma. Flavour is hoppy, malty, followed by dill. Fruity, a bit yeasty. Soft mouthfeeling. Well drinkable. Finish is slightly bitter. Nice stuff.

Bottled @ cafe derat, medium sample. Hazy golden color, big white head leaving a medium longlasting head with plenty of white lacing. Aroma is spicy, dill, didnt get the mustard seed, some flowery hops, slight salty note. Bit bitter in taste, bit sweet, slight salty note. Maybe a slight spicy bite from the mustardseeds, but wouldnt have noticed if I hadnt read the label. Easy drinker.

Original beer. Body of a dry saison, but with weird herbs like mustard and dille. Some rye as well. Tasty and pleasently different.
