Poured from a 750.ml bottle.
Aroma is fruity with nice blueberry and currant notes. Light citrus notes. Light herbal, phenolic notes. Faint oak and alcohol notes. Light malt notes. A bit of herbal, earthy funk.
Pours a nice purplish red with some orange hues on the edges with a medium sized, moderately thick, frothy, pink head that recedes quickly to the edges and disappears.
Flavor is somewhat acidic with a light sweetness and light grain notes. Moderate bitterness and alcohol notes. Nice currant and blueberry notes. Light earthy, herbal phenolic s and a light spicy, peppery phenolic note. Hints of citrus and faint oak.
Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth.
Overall, a solid fruity saison. A bit acidic but not too much so. Great fruity, berry notes. A bit of SARA funk and oak notes. I remembered this being more acidic, but this bottle isn't bad at all.
