Import Series Vol. 1 Belgian Saison Ale - For the first edition of the Stillwater Import Series I traveled to the village of Beerzel, located in the Antwerp province of Belgium. Here I teamed up with brewmaster Jef Goetelen to craft an authentic Belgian version of my liquid interpretation of the Spring season. A recipe originally contrived a few years prior as a collaboration brew with my good friend Paul Kretzer. The base is German barley & wheat, with a touch of Belgian aromatic; accented with grassy hops and an array of spring botanicals (heather, chamomile, lavender, & dandelion). Like a fresh meadow in spring.

From the bottle. Pours golden with limited irregular foam. Aroma is spiced. Body is medium. Taste is a beautiful mixture of spicing and honey feeling, for a mouthful of taste. Finish is short.

Pours hazy dark orange/amber with a frothy white head. Smells strongly of lavender. The aroma contains lavender and other herbs, fruits, wheat and hops. It tastes medium sweet and very light bitter. The finish is quite short. Medium body and soft carbonation. Interesting, this one.

Treated as a saison because that’s what I thought it is, this was poured into a tulip.
The appearance was a hazy golden yellow color with a light carbonation rising at a nice pace. Finger’s worth of white foamy head quickly dissipated. Light lacing slides right on into the beer.
The smell takes on sweet bready to floral (lavender) with a sweet earthy/grassiness rubbing shoulders with some sweet crisp herbal leafiness.
The flavor takes the previously mentioned flavors and wraps together a fantastic herbal/floral/bready combined sweetness. Definitely brings on that lazy sweet \"evening\" quality of an aftertaste and subtly sliding on into the finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a good sessionability about it. Carbonation rides fairly low in this one, still, a subtle stickiness, but not cloying.
Overall, good saison, I could come back to.

A murky dark amber ale with a thin off white head. In aroma, light candy sugar with light oxidation, treacle, light cherry and cinnamon notes, OK. In mouth, a sweet caramel malt with light candy sugar, cherries, lactic acid, alcohol warmth, nice, if a bit tired.

Dear at Top Hops. Clear orange. Off white head. Funky aroma, some fruity notes. Lots of funk overall. Super drinkable though it is a little bit funky.
