Our brewmaster Wolfgang Lindell and his team had a wish to brew a saison with a little twist. They wanted to spice it up with a dry hops with a fruity character. On a visit to E.C. Dahls' sister brewery (Brooklyn Brewery in New York), Wolfgang found what he was looking for; the Ella hops was the perfect match for the fruity notes in our Belgian yeast. And when Wolfgang smashed the hops in his hands to smell, it was clear that it should be followed by another hops variety - Bravo! Bravo is used in our Bolt IPA and has become a hops variety we have grown very fond of. The Belgian yeast gives a nice finish and the beer smells slightly yeasty. The taste brings a modern sweet fruitiness with notes of banana and tropical fruits. It features floral and elderflower notes with a hint citrus from the hops. The hops and yeast aroma is balanced and the brew slightly bitter. The wheat gives a mild creamy texture. The beer has a longlasting aftertaste.

Seminardag på jobb ... På Rockheim, med utsikt over svartlamoen. Servert litt kald, og dermed litt anonym, men ellers god.

330ml bottle ["nihil est in collectione quod non fuerit in mense" - thanks to bartlebier for having me in mind during your Trøndelag trip!]. Hazy dark golden to amber colour with small to average, thick, creamy, moderately lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Grassy hoppy, spicy yeasty and bready malty aroma, weak, unspecific fruitiness, minimally floral notes of fresh hay, caraway-spiced brown bread, a touch of green apple, pear and basil. Taste is dry, grassy hoppy and yeasty spicy, slightly bready, caramel malty basis with subtle residual sweetness, notes of fresh hay, grass, hints of basil, pear, green apple, a touch of caraway and white pepper; lingering bitter and grassy hoppy finish, smooth and soft palate. Very nice!

Bottled 330ml (from Kirkenes)
Slightly hazy orange colour, small white head. White peppery, a bit perfumic,, banana aroma. Light to medium-bodied. Banana, Saison yeast some white pepperness. A bit industrial feeling with its extra sweetness but tolerable.
