Askî Oci is a very special brew led by Nadine Hansen, ABC’s co-creative director. Within the craft beer industry it is of the upmost importance that we facilitate and encourage a diverse range of voices to occupy roles within brewing and inspire new creations—this beer is a small reflection of this positive direction. Using only local ingredients, we created a beer that reflects the West Coast and Prairies and pays homage to the bounty of raw, wholesome flavours this land provides to us.

This light saison is dry and wildly dynamic. Off the nose surges spruce and lively floral, citrus notes, which give way to multilayered grains, soft smoke, and a sweeping barnyard funk.

Saison (4.25%) • Brewed with Canadian Prairies 2-row, wheat malt, and Langley alfalfa hay; Hopped with Bredenhof Hops (Abbotsford) Centennial; Infused with local BC spruce in the boil.

Clearish gold with a decent white head. Perfumy and leafy forest notes. Bitter and woody with a leafy note. Very perfumy and forest like.

Very nice foam, stormy carbonation, soft foggy yellow body. The aroma is earthy lemon, barn funk, some musty sourness. Flavour is heavy spruce, seriously heavy, overpowering soft peppery grain and lemony hop notes. Lingering spruce finish. The spruce is overbearing and obscures all else that is going on in the brew; dial it back and this would be even better.

On tap at ABC, pours a hazy golden blonde with a medium white head. Aroma is full of coriander spice, floral notes, and rustic saison yeast. Flavour is extremely spicy and herbaceous, with lots of earthy spice, coriander, and intense spruce. The spruce is way too intense but the saison yeast does make its mark. Decent.
