Poured from a 750 ml bottle. Aroma is pure SARA - stonefruit, lemon, green grapes and hints of herbal, earthy phenolics. Light grain notes and hints of oak. Hints of alcohol. Pours a slightly hazy, pale golden color with a medium sized, thick, pillowy, white head that recedes steadily to a small film that lingers. Medium lacing and faint legs. Flavor is slightly sweet with a light acidity and light grain notes. Medium low bitterness and light alcohol notes. Quite of bit of stone fruit, lemon and green grape notes from the fermentation with hints of herbal, earthy phenolics. Hints of grassy hop notes and oak in the finish. Mouthfeel is medium bodied with medium carbonation. Low astringency and low alcohol warmth. Overall, a solid SARA saison. Classic SARA fermentation profile with nice fruity notes that open up in the flavor as it warms. Slightly more acidic than I would prefer, but not bad at all. Light malt profile allowing the fermentation profile to shine. Complimentary oak and hop notes.
