Saison

33 cl bottle @ lusikka, BBE 08.03.2013
Aroma has citrus, wheat and hints of yeast. Flavour is rather strong on citrus. Also bubblegum and hints of wheat. A bit short flavour – maybe 5,2% is just not enough for saison.

330ml bottle from Utobeer, London

BBE 08/03/13 - Pours pale yellow with a small white head. Aroma of citrusy hops, malts, wheat and spices. Taste is quite mild with some fruity hops, spices, citrus and hints of malts. Finish is sligthly fruity and bitter with medium carbonation and hints of lemon. Okay, quite generic saison.

Bottle at home in London with Lyoli. Pours a faintly hazy yellow-gold with a soft, white foam head. Big doughy and yeasty aroma with hints of anise and banana. Medium sweet flavor with lightly toasted dough, some dry citrus rind, light grassy bitterness, modest yeast. Light to medium bodied with fine carbonation. Dry, light sweet finish with further dry yeast notes, light toasty dough, lemon rind, light grass, light citrus tang. It’s very decent, just seems a bit conflicted between being a Kernel APA and a saison. Still, it’s really nice.
