FUEGO DEL OTOÑO
"AUTUMN FIRE"
SOUR Saison
ABV: 5.8%
IBUs: 22
TIME IN OAK: 6 Months
HOPS: Perle & Willamette
GRAINS: Pilsner Malt, Pale Malt, Vienna Malt, Crystal 75, Wheat Malt, & Chocolate Malt
ADDITIONAL INGREDIENTS: Chestnuts, Star Anise, Crystal Ginger, & Cinnamon Sticks
LAST RELEASE: October 2016
To catch a bit of soft radiance in each bottle, we wait for fall colors to begin their bright and fleeting glow before brewing this wonderful ale under their autumn fire. Gentle amber malt blends with smooth caramel notes, gently lapping against a distant shore of forgotten spice.
A beer to sip, to contemplate, to enjoy!
Cheers & Mahalo plenty!

Thanks Vran(s)? Matt? Don't remember Murky brown body with an off white head. Sweetish aroma, dominated by soft, well integrated chestnuts, quite nice! The taste, however, is nowhere near, light and dry, dominated by a sharp acidity. Eh. Just nowhere near I expected, especially after smelling it.

Bottle, about 2 years old now. Spicy, cakelike nose, chestnuts, caramel. Glowing orange-amber, clear, with lace. Sweet and sour flavor, spicy, chestnuts, yogurt, pumpkin pie spice. The spice is a bit overdone, but it is pretty good.

Keg at BD Shoreditch, 23/01/16. Lightly hazed golden yellow with a decent off white head. Nose is on the thin side comprising lemon rind, straw, yeast esters, bread dough. Taste comprises light malts, fruit tang, caramel, spice, grains, lemon drizzle. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. So so … whelming for the style and doesn’t do a lot for me.

Bottle from Beergium.com. Pours dark amber with white head. Quite tart with prominent chestnut, citrus, wet wood, christmas spices and a bit of cherry. A lot going on at the same time and it’s peculiarly delicious. Why did I only buy one bottle?
