Poured from a 750 ml bottle.
Aroma is berry forward with notes of raspberry, blueberry and probably some other berries as well. Light notes of lemon and hints of stone fruit. Light berry tannins and light grain notes. Light alcohol notes. Hints of peppery phenolics.
Pours a hazy, pinkish, peachy, orange-red with a medium sized, somewhat thin, white head that recedes quickly to the edges where it lingers. No lacing and small legs.
Flavor has a medium light acidity with a light sweetness and hints of grain. Medium to medium high bitterness and light alcohol notes. Moderately strong berry notes with raspberry being most prevalent along with some blueberry. Hints of lemon as well. Medium light berry tannins and hints of peppery, earthy phenolics.
Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth.
Overall, a solid berry saison. It's not overly acidic which is nice. Berries are present but not overwhelming and they allow the base saison an opportunity to show up. Alcohol is balanced as is the bitterness. Not overly tannin forward.

Bottle, pours clearish rose. Small kinda fizzy white head, some lacing. Aroma is raspberry sweet tarts, mineral water, berry yogurt, sara bugs. Flavor is annoyingly tart, light fruit, yogurt. Light body.
