Table beer is a rustic blonde ale brewed in the style of French and Belgian style table beers. This beer has lots of flavor packed into a low ABV. Spicy rye notes play with the yeast character from this 100% Brett fermented beer. The hops for this beer will slowly evolve over time ensuring each batch allows something new to be discovered while still retaining common threads.

Nice red can from vintage estate, pounder at that. Hazy pale presentation like many wit bier. Yes, pours like a pretty nice beldgy with a big bubbly white head, and has the first impression carbonation of a good belgian as well. The creamy fine sizzliness of this brew makes it quite attractive, I'm liking it. In the middle it starts to show a few mild ill attributes of a typical ale, but never quite gits thar. Yes. mellow and very belgian fer sher. Friendly domestic representation of, should I say it? The big O? Very good finish with overall impressions of a civilized euro beer. Some hint of astrigentness lurking in the background but it rarely sticks its moley head up, so I can wack it. Not bad! Nice job Central! However; tho gud, I'm not sure if it totally rises to the level of Orval.

That's a funky super light one. Real farmy.

Can. Gold with a white head. Pours clear at first, then cloudy. Aroma is brusque and cheery with grain, peach, orange, spices, moderate funk. Light bodied, quite fizzy. Dryish with soft fruit and spices, firm bitterness and a properly dry end. Refreshing. Right up my street.

16 ounce can into tulip glass; no can dating, but is a recent local release. Pours slightly hazy pale golden straw color with a 1-2 finger fairly dense and rocky white head with great retention, that reduces to a small cap that lingers. Nice spotty soapy lacing clings on the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation. Aromas of lightly tart lemon, lime, pear, red apple, melon, citrus peel, white grape, peppercorn, clove, hay, straw, herbal, floral, grass, wheat, cracker, spicy rye bread, light musty funk, and yeast earthiness. Damn nice aromas with great balance and complexity of fruity/funky/spicy yeast, earthy hops, and light-moderate pale/rye malt notes; with great strength. Taste of lightly tart lemon, lime, pear, red apple, melon, citrus peel, white grape, peppercorn, clove, hay, straw, herbal, floral, grass, wheat, cracker, spicy rye bread, light musty funk, and yeast earthiness. Moderate peppery Brett/rye spiciness, herbal/grassy bitterness, and light yeast tang/tartness on the finish. Lingering notes of lemon, lime, pear, red apple, melon, citrus peel, white grape, peppercorn, clove, hay, straw, herbal, floral, grass, wheat, cracker, spicy rye bread, light musty funk, and yeast earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Great complexity, robustness, and balance of fruity/funky/spicy yeast, earthy hops, and light-moderate pale/rye malt flavors; with a great malt/bitter/spiciness balance; and zero astringent flavors after the finish. Moderate increasing dryness from bitter/spiciness and carbonation. Medium-high carbonation and light-medium body; with a very smooth, moderately crisp, and bready/grainy/sticky balanced mouthfeel that is great. Zero warming alcohol as expected of 4%. Overall this is an excellent table saison. All around great complexity, robustness, and balance of fruity/funky/spicy yeast, earthy hops, and light-moderate pale/rye malt flavors; very smooth, crisp, and refreshing to drink; with the moderately bitter/spicy/drying finish. Very flavorful for the low ABV. Great well rounded Brett/saison yeast complexity, balanced earthy hops, and solid rye malt backbone. A very enjoyable offering, and spot on style example.

Can from Wine Tree East. Pours a clear deep gold to light amber with a full 2 fingers of foam that lingers. Earthy and mineral forward nose, some grass in there as well. Dry and earthy on the palate, some horseblanket as it warms. Dry finish with some peppercorn notes that linger. Nice table beer. --- Beer merged from original tick of Table Beer on 19 Nov 2016 at 20:31 - Score: 6
