Bottle pour, enjoyed during a blind barrel aged beers tasting. Dark brown pour. Cool front nose, that had me guessing Gin barrel before I even tasted it. Herbal fronted taste, slightly sour. A ton of barrel going on here. On reveal, certainly not surprised at the gin barrel, or herbs. I thought this was a great beer to feature a gin barrel. Flavors went really well together, and resulted in a refreshing saison, especially considering it's strength. Solid beer.
