By using wheat, oats, and rye, besides barley malt, we tried to thicken up the body of this light, dry saison late and dry hopped with Saaz and East Kent Golding hops.

"Session saison" (which sounds like a pleonasm if you know this beer style’s history), draught at Oedipus Taproom. Moussy, stable, off-white head, cloudy straw blonde robe with peachy hue. Aroma of dry grapefruit peel, camomile, bread crust, peach, green kiwi, moldy lime, raw pineapple, bubblegum and a touch of sweat. Fruity, mildly estery onset, peach, pineapple and a touch of banana with a sourish gooseberry-like undertone, spritzy carbo with soapy mouthfeel, light as expected but still well-rounded and not betraying its humble ABV. Bready malt sweet backbone, some caramelly sweetishness as well, esters and some light phenols in the end with citrusy and floral hop aromas and mild bitterness, earthy yeast remnants as well. Feels very Belgian but in the 21st century way, i.e. with an international, in this case citrusy hoppy touch. Pleasant, aromatic and very quenching, as it was intended.

At BBF, citrusy aroma and flavor with some light bready malt behind.light mellow bitterness, empathic citrus sourness but not too much. Quite nice.

Sampled from bottle at the brewpub. Hazy, yellow with a white head. Fruity-grassy, slightly spicy aroma of lemon, grapefruit, pineapple, fresh grass and some white pepper. Slightly bitter, grassy-fruity and slightly spicy taste of lemongrass, pineapple, grapefruit and fresh grass, followed by a short, slightly bitter, dry-grassy finish. Thin to medium body, slightly effervescent mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Nice for that abv!
