Poured from a 750 ml bottle. Aroma is nice and fairly floral with lighter notes of lemon and green grapes. Light oak notes and light alcohol notes. Hints of earthy, herbal phenolics. Light grain notes. Floral notes include yarrow, elderflower and orange blossom. Pours a slightly hazy, yellow-gold with a medium small, thick, fluffy, white head that recedes quickly to a small film that lingers on the edges. No lacing and faint legs. Flavor is somewhat acidic but very soft and not sharp with light grain notes. Medium low bitterness and light alcohol notes. Moderately strong fruit notes of lemon and stone fruit. Light oak notes and light floral notes. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, an amazing saison. Floral notes in the aroma are very reminiscent of lambic while flavor is super soft and a bit fruity. Oak notes are light. Hints of SARA funk, but this has something else, more complex, going on with the fermentation notes. Top tier. The gin barrels work so well with this beer.

Two reviews?!? WTF. Bottle. Pours clear golden, small white head, decent lacing. Aroma is gin barrel, botanical, bugs, juniper, but of dust, oak. Flavor is light tart, light funk, lovely gin notes. Light body, soft mouthfeel. Gin BA SARA beers are truly a gift.

Bottle thanks to daknole! 5/10/22. Pale gold. Vibrant. Aroma of oak, vinous notes, herbal and floral notes, presumably from the gin. Some lemon and grape. Taste is funk, lemon, oak, herbal notes. Bright, mild tartness. Nice.
