Pours hazy yellow into a tulip. No head whatsoever. Yuzu and ginger aromas. Crisp with sweet citrus, ginger upfront turning quickly to juicy fruit in the medium length finish.

Canned 6/10/24, drunk 7/7/24. Chill hazed brass-golden. Little/no head. Juicy, rich ginger in the nose. Not easy to get at the saison character, but there's nothing off. Heavy but very well-done ginger in the flavor. Some spicy phenols on the end. Nice and malty. Clean and spicy. More of a ginger beer than a saison, but delicious nonetheless.
