In collaboration with our bearded brothers at Arizona Wilderness Brewing, we present this farmhouse saison brewed with passion fruit, dragon fruit, tart centennial kumquats, rosemary, fresh bay leaves and white Sonoran wheat. Aged over 12 months in sauvignon blanc barrels, this saison comes in at 8.8% ABV and boasts wine-like characteristics imparted from the barrels. It's a mouthful, we know, but this beer showcases the diversity and passion of both breweries and our quest to push the craft movement forward.

8.2/10 Appearance 10 Aroma 8 Flavor 8 Texture 8 Overall 8
Poured from a bottle courtesy of FlopFaceFred and popery. Aroma is very fruity with a lot of tropical fruit with some citrus. A bit of a candied fruit character to it with some light citrus. Light malt notes of caramel and toasted bread. Maybe some honey character with a light spiciness. Bay leaves work well in the aroma and add some phenolic complexity. Pours a fairly clear copper color with a medium sized, moderately thick, white head that recedes to the edges where it lingers. Moderate lacing and small legs. Flavor is slightly to moderately sweet with some light caramel notes. Moderately strong fruit notes, especially towards the finish where there is a lot of passion fruit. Medium bitterness. Medium light acidity with some light kumquat character. Bay leaves add a bit of bitterness as a well as a woody, herbal phenolic note. Light oak notes and tannins. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, an interesting and unique beer that works for me, but I can see this being a polarizing beer with the bay leaves. So much passion fruit and dragon fruit.
