Bottle: Poured a hazy pale yellow color ale with a nice large foamy head with good retention and some good lacing. Aroma of peppery yeast with light citrus notes and rustic malt is pretty awesome. Taste is a great mix between some light citrus notes, some peppery yeast notes with some solid rustic malt notes. I can’t say that the chardonnay barrel imparted a lot of flavors. Body was about average with great carbonation. Solid saison form an interesting new brewery.
