Top of the cork says 2013, but hey this tastes and smells great. Let’s do this. Rcvd in trade, thank you Damian.
Poured into a tulip.
The appearance was a gentle looking hazy yellowed orange color with a slim quarter finger white head that dissipated within less than thirty seconds.
The smell had a nice funky and somewhat sour but still a settling sweet citrus (grapefruit/mango/lemon rind and lemon) backed up by a light spice.
The taste was sharp fresh citrus sweetness over coating a light spice. There’s a nice citrusy sweet refreshing like but not watery aftertaste. I didn’t get any finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a pretty good sessionability about this one. The carbonation comes across fairly smooth. I didn’t mind that it was lighter than most saisons as it created a very nice refreshing quality to this beer.
Overall, are all of Saint Somewhere’s beers this good? If so, I need to make an appearance to this fine brewery some day as this was an exceptional beer more than worthy of having again.

A hazed golden saison with a thin white head. In aroma, sweet fruity malt with grassy character, wild weed, light solvent notes, OK. In mouth, a sweet fruity malt with smooth sour apple, lemon, very nice. Bottle from Luke’s, tasted at Spinrsx tasting.
