My goal was to craft an ale of extreme balance with a delicate complexity that allows for contemplation while also providing quaffable refreshment. starting with a base of German wheat & pale malts this crisp slightly hazy foundation was then accented with a blend of Sterling & Citra hops providing a intricate blend of herbal grass & tangerine citrus flavors and aroma. to pull this all together and to complete the ’cleansing’ aspect of my vision i gently finished the ale off with a touch of white sage, lending a mild earthy spice character to the blend. of course let’s not forget our house saison yeast that brought all the elements together leaving a dry yet intricate finish.

Perfect mix between a season and a white IPA. Sweet side, mango, tropical fruit, hop well integrated, well balanced, malty and rich, 25.02.2019, enjoying it at home, Epalinges.

Bottle at the beer bistro.
Hazy golden pour, with a huge white head. Big earthy aroma, im gettin the sage, and some notes of lavender. Big hops, zesty citrus, some yeasty notes, with a nice corriander finish. Quite complex, mouth feel is a big fuller than i expected, but this was super satusfying, and refeshing. Finish was a touch dry, with some herbs, and more of the earthy herbs, and citrus zest.

Bottle at home. Aroma is spicy, perfumed, ginger, zesty citrus peel, lemon, hay, wheat, yeast, floral, pepper. Flavour is light sweet and moderate bitter. Medium bodied. Well-made and fairly complex brew, but overall a bit too spicy gingery for me to return to it.

12oz can, 2020 vintage I believe. Golden pour with a light white head. Aroma is strong, herbal and citrus. Definitely sage. Flavors are firmly sage with a light earthy and herbal blend in the background. Good finish, but too much sage for this guy.
