Keykeg at Cambridge Beer Festival 2016. Yellow, hazy. Small film of white head. Smells odd... a bit of season yeast but also rubber, banana and a hint of lamb. Tastes perfect at first: that sweet yeasty hit, wow. But it fades. Short finish, although the gentle but pervasive carbonation is nice. I’ve had a few saisons lately that were overspiced... But this one’s too muted. Not the best beer by this incredible brewery.

Bottle from Drank van de Meisjes, small sample. Slight hazy copper color, short frothy head. Aroma of quite some sorachi ace, bit coconut and vanilla, some caramel and chocolate. Bit dry in taste, slight vanilla sweetness, medium bitterness. Not what I expected to be honest. Sorachi Ace quite prominent and not as much vanilla as I thought. The regular RISses from Kees are much more towards a custard porter than this sorachi ace brown IPA.
