I hadn’t had a beer from Tamamura Honten in awhile so picked up this reasonably priced one: Shiga Kogen Spelt Saison 6.5% Crystal clear gold with an eggshell white foam that vanished quickly. Eggy with a sharp sweet tart/catpiss element. I kind of feel this is a touch Brett like. Medium bodied, it has a dry finish with a bit of peppery earthy notes I assume are from the spelt. Quite flavorful and interesting brew, if you like saison you’ll most likely enjoy this one.
