An unblended oat saison fermented and aged in barrels. This beer was brewed on 12/06/22 with a grist of English Maris Otter and two types of oats. It was boiled with very old hop flowers and slightly less old pelletized hops before fermenting in neutral oak barrels. This beer was refermented to condition in the bottle with local raw Snowberry honey.

Super clean, saline, moderately acidic. Some lemon peel, restrained funk, mellow salty bite. Good depth, highly drinkable.

750mL bottle, pours a hazy golden orange with a small white head. Aroma has plenty of rustic bugginess and a touch of oak. Flavour has fermented out honey, rustic notes, a touch of bugginess, and maybe a hint of oak. Quite bitter for a saison, surprisingly given the old hops. Rustic, buggy and bitter. Very good.

750ml (thx, Josh!) @ Ryan's.
Aroma: nice bugs with some fruity notes.
Taste: taste is along the same lines, but it has an unusually high bitterness for saisons and Floodland saisons in particular.
Overall: still a good one.
