Inspired by Belgian Kriek Lambic beer, Bended Note is a Barrel-aged Saison with both sweet and tart cherries. While the scarlet stone fruit abounds, the time spent in Frederiksdal Cherry wine Puncheons is the true star of this unique bottle conditioned wonder. At every sip one experiences the pleasurable balance of funk, vanillin depth, and the deep red flavors that only the finest cherries exude. Our hope is that you will enjoy Bended Note amongst friends.

At Snallygaster 2022. Poured a dark ruby red color with a small, light pink head. Aroma was big berries. Big tart fruit. Smooth. Really nice jammy notes and a moderate amount of funk.

Poured from a 750 ml bottle. Aroma is rather cherry forward with notes of cherry pie and spicy, cinnamon-like cherry. Light tannin notes with hints of lemon and oak. Faint malt notes and light alcohol notes. Pours a slightly hazy, dullish, purple-red with a small, thin, pinkish head that recedes quickly to the edges where it lingers for a bit. Faint lacing and small legs. Flavor is slightly acidic with moderate sweetness and light grain notes. Medium light bitterness and light alcohol notes. Fairly strong cherry notes with lots of cherry pie notes and lighter cinnamon cherry notes. Hints of tannins, oak and lemon with very faint phenolics. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a really tasty beer. Lots of complex cherry notes with a light grain profile. Hints of SARA funk. Somewhat sweet with hints of acidity.
