Bottle drunk 12/1/17.
Lightly-to-minimally hazy, pale, straw-golden with a small covering of white foam.
Neither adjunct stands out in the nose, but rather light Brett acids and a moderate amount of lactic character keep things bright and lightly citrusy. Cereal grain behind it is augmented by a touch of honey-like maltiness, as light saison esters (apple, pear) as well as white pepper and soft mineral dot the end.
Tart, but lightly and pleasingly so, with just a mild touch of lavender mixing with other pepper phenols. Soft malts are quite dry, but still add some balancing sweetness, while light Brett funk emerges mores strongly as it warms/breathes. Engaging, tight carbonation and no alcohol, flaw or out-of-place/dominant adjunct character. Well-aged and everything seems pretty harmonious. Been quite impressed with Plan Bee thus far.

Bottle at release. Pours hazy yellow gold white head. Nose is faint honey, lemon, lavender, florals, saison yeast and lemongrass. Taste is same but very pronounced and a touch of sour funk. Lighter medium body.
