33cl bottle pours a muddy yellow with some frothy, white head. Herbal nose, grassy, gristy, soapy, sweet dough. Flavor is a touch hot, white pepper, malt, candy, honey, grass, a little bell pepper. Finishes astringent and dry.

Partially burgundy barrel aged saison, Ermitage in collaboration with Burnt Mill, tasted from tap at Dok Brewing Company following Ermitage's tap takeover there, thanks Jan for sharing. Membrane-lacing, snow white, creamy, medium thick head, misty yellowish straw blonde robe with peachy tinge. Aroma of fermenting plums, mead, pear juice, raw cauliflower, peach cake, white wine, gooseberry jam, some wet wood, lemon flesh, dough, cider. Sweet onset with sour edges, very fruity with notes of gooseberry, pineapple, yellow plum and green grapes, lively and even sharp carbonation, soft bready malt core dried by fruity and vinous tartness no doubt coming from the burgundy barrel, light wine accent in the finish indeed mixing with the beer's natural fruitiness and breadiness, light zesty hop notes as well but mellow in bitterness. Very elegant modern 'farmhouse' ale rather than classic saison, complex and up to date, lovely beer.

Bottle at Nuetnigenough. It pours cloudy bright gold with a thick white head. The aroma is bready malt, spice, hay, grape must, sponge cake, some grass and light fruitiness. The taste is firmly dry, crisp, bitter, minerals, straw, hay, cracker, light tannin, oak, straw, grass and spice with a bone dry finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Really nice and dry. Well rounded and quaffable. Works well.
