Bottle with label listing 20231110. A very slight haze, golden colour with a pinkish hue, a whitish head that has some soapy lacing, and leaves a coat on the brew. Some mild funkiness, vinegar nose, blending with some citrus notes, lime zest and the blood orange juice. The mouthfeel is wet with a touch of dryness to finish it all, and a tad tart left. Some nice sourness in the taste with the lime and the blood orange rounding things up. Quite a nice refreshing, Saison with some nice sour-lime balanced by the blood orange juice.

Amber and bright. Bretty up front, light acidity and a mild hop accent. Good stuff.

Bottle poured a hazy golden color with a small white head. Aroma was citrus, grapefruit. Light herbal notes, light lime. This was pretty delicate, light tartness. Flavor was delicious.
