Crisp, hazy, slightly chunky copper and bronze coloured body with a touch of a rose tint, all with a nice, soapy, three centimetre tall pink head. Aroma of coriander seed, light spices, a touch of grassy hops and a little bit of cherries also noticeable, but a bit more sweetness than anything else. Medium-bodied; Assertive grassy and herbal characteristic up front with a little cherry sour and funkiness, but not much at all - more malt right afterwards and only a smidgen of coriander seed freshness throughout. Aftertaste is dry at least, with some grain and sweetness mixed in, but hardly any cherry notes and only a bit of hops or grassiness at all. Overall, a pretty average beer, at least according to the title they gave it - not a saison really, and hardly any cherry notes at all. Aside from that, it wasn’t harsh or pungent and didn’t have any off-flavours, so it was decent, but not great. I sampled this twelve ounce can purchased from Total Beverage in Thornton, Colorado on 04-June-2017 for US$1,96 sampled at home in Washington on 11-August-2017.
