Belgian-Style Saison Ale

Our Spring Saison is light blonde in color with a fresh hoppiness and a wild and rustic Brettanomyces character. Lighter in color and alcohol than our Saison Rue, yet equally complex in its own way. Perfect for warmer weather and Spring celebrations.

Admin Note: Bruery has started to brew this beer again under the Bruery Terreux label.

Draft at Waterfront Manhattan. Pourred a clear gold, nice sweet floral nose and taste. I dug it.

Notes from May 2011 Slept through Easter & served everyone Yuengling with the holiday ham, my bad. Bottle into my favorite Ommegang anniversary glass. Filtered, deep golden color. Frothy, engorged white wash head. Lots of activity. Lemons & bready yeast. Leafy greens & herbals. Bit disappointing in scent. Half sour, pickled opening. Yeasty, very grassy flavor. Everything else plays second fiddle. Soapy citrus, flowers & bitter herbs. Grainy malt. Almost tart. Mostly dry throughout. Plastic, orangy rind finish. Lingering herbal. Plenty of carbonation. A bit tacky. Frothy. A well done, hoppy saison.

Draught @ The Bruery, Placentia. Tart and slightly funky with some bretta, farmyard and yeastiness. Decent

Bottle. Pale golden color. Pours a huge but steady head. Lemon and leather in the very bretty aroma. Peppery oily hopbitter flavor. Lots of lemon and leather. Brettanomyces are dominating. Totally dry, all malt sugars are used up. Peppery hopbitter finish. Excellent. A world class beer.
