Draft. Straw beer with a whitish head. Tart and citrus aroma. Tart and light citrus flavor with light grain. Medium bodied. Tart and light citrus lingers with light earthiness.

Pours a bright golden yellow. Somewhat hazy. I can see the bottom of this little glass easily enough. Settles out even more after a couple minutes. Medium vigor head, a white mass of little bubbles. Good lacing. Aroma is fairly standard fare for a saison with a twist of brett funk. Tastes like Dupont plus brett but I’m terrible at that game. Light pineapple, just a floral fruit note in the background. Light farmyard flavors. Nice and dry in the taste. Fresh grain. Nice, sharp peppercorn. Very light feel. Prickly carbonation.

Tap. Pours cloudy yellow, small white head, dissipates quickly, ok lacing. Aroma is peppery, herbs, honey, grass, no really getting Brett. Flavor Mitch the same, a nice saison but no Brett.
