French for "Northern Flower," Fleur du Nord is a blended saison fermented with a mix of saison yeast strains, cultured microbes, and the spontaneous yeast and bacteria that reside in the walls of our 40 hl French oak foeders. After fermenting and aging, it was bottle conditioned using wildflower honey sourced from Northern Wisconsin.

Really sour, not a saison. It’s clean and neutral, not all that funky, but superbly brewed. Beertemple ams

On tap at the brewery. Pours a near clear peachy gold with a white head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has a nice slightly tart dry fruit with a touch of dry honey and oak underlying. Flavor has sour light fruits supported by dry honey and oak notes.
