Bottle thanks to Jeremy. Pours a cloudy yellow orange with small frothy white head. The aroma is grape must, oak, funk, yeast. Light body, tart grape, light funk, oak, dry finish, very nice.

Expected a classic saison flavor but got more tart acidity than I'd like, the nose is great sweet funk though.

500ml bottle from Tavour. Bright, hazy golden, fine creamy head sticks around for a while. Aroma is a big noseful of farmhouse yeast, tart notes, lemon. Taste adds minute red wine accents, citrus, pronounced tartness, yeast, grassy.

2019. Gin AND wine barrel, omggggg when did I die and go to Afterthought? The citrus complexity is like a Florida version of Immanuel Kant. I want this kegged at my wedding AND funeral.

Just love this stuff. Red wine barrel adds a ton of earthiness, rich and full copper color vibes. Very unique. June 2019.

So divine. One of my faves from them. Incredibly soft. Hops take a backseat yet swirl all around la lengua.

Just a big yes. 12/19, and the hops have blended, aged, twirled together beautifully with the rest since then. I finished this way too fast. Pic: hello textbook, my old friend.
