Farmhouse - Saison Regular

Score

6.64

ABV: 4.8%

IBU: -

Ticks: 16

Radius is a saison that harks back to the days when farmhouse beers were session beers, full of flavor, but light enough that you could stick with them all day or all evening. At only 4.8% ABV, Radius is among the lightest beers we’ve ever made, but it’s packed with flavor. Our Belgian yeast strain gives complex spicy notes and some bright orange zest flavors, while Perle and Aurora hops give a zippy bitterness and a pleasant floral aroma. Radius is bone-dry, unfiltered, hoppy, and refreshing, and doesn’t put the hard whammy on us after a glass or two (okay, it’s true - we’re sometimes in the mood for the hard whammy...but not always!).

Draft from brouwerij lane. Ultra yeasty and soily. Not very successful IMO. Couldn’t really session this.

(Draught at Akkurat, Stockholm, 6 May 2013) Pale yellow colour with frothy, white head. Malty, nose with notes of hay, grass, citrus and hints of spices. Malty, slightly spicy taste with bread, citrus, hints of yeast and a gentle spicy bitterness in the finish. Medium body, quite dry. Refreshing and quite drinkable, but lacking some saison character. More like a kölsch-style saison. Quite nice though.

Associated Supermarket, Buskwick growler-fill ($10): Pour is super light, with a relatively loose white head. Aroma is farmhouse funk and some smelly flowers and stuff. Taste is really light, but it is no sense watery. Full enough flavor for a light saison. Light hoppiness throughout. Pretty good.

On tap at Akkurat during Brooklyn tap takeover, April 27, 2012. Hazy golden with a white head. Aroma of yeast, citrus, spices and some ginger. Dry taste with quite a high bitterness. Not bad but far from the best Saison out there.

Draught @ Akkurat. Pours yellow, hazy, with a white head. Super drinkable, refreshing, yet complex! Notes of elderberries, ginger, citrus, currant seeds, orange peel, tigerbalsam and honey. Ends dry and quite bitter. True to style! Lovely, lovely beer!

Draught at Akkurat. A fresh spicy brew, hops and ginger (Pepparkakor). Truely my kind of beer! Lots of taste but still drikable in larger quantities if you’d like (or in this case, had the possibility....)
