An unfiltered Saison brewed with fresh chamomile flowers, ginger, and spices then aged in a bourbon barrel. Originally brewed to recognize the Dia de los Muertos holiday, this "Skulls & Flowers" beer features mild ginger flavor with notes of lemon zest while the barrel aging contributes color and balances the complexity of this unique ale.

On tap at Able Baker, pours a clear golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out chamomile, light ginger, rustic saison yeast and some bourbon barrels. Flavour somehow works well, with bourbon barrels, rustic saison yeast, accentuated with light ginger and chamomile. The mix of bourbon with saison character shouldn't work but it does. Solid stuff.

Sampled from the tap at the brewery. Pours a clear rusty orange with a white head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has light fruits that are slightly tart with oak and a bit of grass underlying. Flavor has more sweet grains and flora with a touch of light fruits and oak backing.
