Saison brewed with honey, coriander & lemon verbena. Fermented with a mixed culture of classic saison yeast strains, wild yeast & bacteria. Post fermentation, the beer was conditioned in a stainless steel for 6 weeks, with its primary mixed culture. A third & final fermentation, completed this beer in a bottle. Pockets of Sunlight is a radiant saison full of crisp energy. Please cool before opening & pour with care, leaving sediment in the bottle.

500ml bottle. Hazy, yellow-ish, bright golden colour with small, frothy, half-way lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Rich and intense aroma, floral-herbal-spicy-funky, bretty prelude, hints of brine, mustard seed, coriander, sage, honey, balm, lemon verbena, gooseberry. Taste is slightly tart, funky, fruity, hints of pear, lemon juice, lemon verbena, honey, sage, a very cautious touch of rosemary. Rich and complex, mild and harmonious in its entirety, very refreshing - great!
