An early draft of our "Yak" Sichuan kveik. It started as simple ale fermented with Norwegian farmhouse yeast. We added a light charge of Aurora hops for some continental aroma, but then came the twist of Sichuan peppercorns for fragrant and spicy punch.

4 July 2021. At Dok Brewing Festival. Shared with the lovely Anke! Hazy orange, small, frothy, off-white head. Aroma of clove, rosemary, perfume, bath soap, eucalyptus somewhat, white pepper. Taste has sweet orange, mango & vague lychee, adding to a perfumey effect; bitter spices & herbs in the middle with soapy edges. Floral & herbal hoppy finish, retronasal bread, yellow fruit & spices. Medium body, oily texture, average carbonation. Nice experiment, the perfume does soften the spiciness a bit.

4/VII/21 - sample on tap @ DOK bierfestival (Ghent), BB: n/a (2021-576) Thanks to the GBV-crew for sharing today’s beers!
Little cloudy blond yellow beer, small creamy irregular white head, pretty stable, non adhesive. Aroma: banana, yeasty, spicy touch, some eucalyptus, sweet impression. MF: ok carbon, medium body. Taste: bit malty, grains, banana peel, little spicy, bit dry, peppery touch. Aftertaste: alcohol, overripe banana, spicy, sweet touch, herbal notes, a bit too sweet and sticky for a saison, but not too bad.
