First let me say this never seems the % alky it lists, yes, its spiced saison and there is old country saison yeast flavor in there, its mostly holiday winter spices like clove, et al. Yes, not sure about the plum, but its there if yosu seek it. Perhaps just a little too much winter spices, like most overspiced end of year brew but this one has some of that saison farm effects yeast all thru the session. Hey, so I’m not a fan of holiday spiced brews, so what?

Sampled on draft at the brewpub this beer poured a hazy reddish color with a medium sized fluffy off white head that lingered and left excellent lacing. The aroma was dryish, chalky, perfumey and boozy. The flavor was dry, perfumey and chalky with a vague fruity undertone. Long finish. Full body. Disappointing.
