Saison Rue is an unfiltered, bottle conditioned, Belgian/French-style farmhouse ale. This is a beer of subtlety and complexity, with malted rye, spicy, fruity yeast notes, biscuit-like malt backbone and a slight citrus hop character. With age, this beer will dry out and will become more complex with rustic notes of leather and earth from the contribution of a wild yeast strain. Being a saison, Saison Rue is ambiguous unto itself as it is a different beer when fresh and when aged.

Thanks to Lithy for sharing this one at decaturstevo’s 2008 Zapit Tasing Tasting. Hazy dark yellow body that forms a long lasting white head. Funky Belgian aroma. Sweet & spicy.

Bottle courtesy of Bu11zeye: Poured a deep hazy copper color ale with a super huge white foamy head with good retention with some great lacing. Aroma of light funky ester with some fruit notes also discernable. Taste is a mix between some fruity ester with light funk and a nice Belgian malt backbone with some subtle dry hops also noticeable. Full body with limited filtration and perfect carbonation while alcohol is very well hidden. Very well done but lacking some character to be truly great.

Bottle, 75cl, thx to papsoe. It pours a hazy orange body with a big diminishing off-white head. Citrus, some caramel, a touch of brett and spices in the aroma. Ginger maybe. Sourish flavor with lemonpeel, spices and alcohol. Dry, medium to full body, fizzy and warming. Decent, spicy finish. I like the spicyness in this beer, but else it was quite ordinary. Or rather maybe just not my beer. (080823)

A gusher. Pours with a gigantic, creamy, off-white head and a hazy orangish body. Aroma of barnyard, spices, pepper, orange peel and earthy brett. Taste is breat, crisp, with tons of orange and orange peel. Fizzy and dry mouthfeel.

(Bottle 75 cl) Courtesy of bu11zeye. Hazy golden with a lively and very tall head that dissipates without disappearing completely. Spicy aroma with a whiff of ginger. Medium body, extremely overcarbonated with notes of yeast spice and pale malts. Very astringent and bitter finish. No real traces of the Brett. Disappointing. 230808

Bottle from stephanje. Pours a clear golden color with a strong, visible. carbonation. Head is strong but small, lacing sticks around for a long time. Aroma is sweet and herbal. Taste is sweet raisin with very faint (wouldn’t know it unless the bottle said so) pineapple-like brett, A nice thick mouthfeel for a Saison adds to the drinkability of the beer. flavor finishes with an herbal/green aspect. All the little parts work very well together, seems like a nice candidate for aging.
750mL bottle, Heart of Darkness thick walled tulip.
