Bottle from the brewery. Opaque black, nice viscosity, no head. Aroma is strong earthy malt, toffee, mild oak and fruit, over bourbon (more expressive as it warms). Taste is as aroma. Smooth, silky texture, soft carbonation, finish as taste. I wish the bourbon was a bit more present but this has held up well for four years old. Drinks super mellow. Very enjoyable.

500 ml bottle, thank you tfontana. 2021 vintage. Aroma shows mild chocolate and easy Blanton bourbon throughout. Carbonation is low. (Almost flat) that doesn’t hurt the mouthfeel at all. Thick and viscous.

Part of a flight at the brewery. Clear gold, no sparkle or head, no lacing. Aroma is strong tart fruit. Taste is strong tart fruit, sweet/tart lemon/lime, hint of late oak (like a tart Smartie). Smooth texture, soft carbonation, finish as taste. Not sour but tartness really gets you in the back of the mouth. Well executed but not my wheelhouse.

Pour is a hazy yellow with a large white head. Aroma is yeast esters all over the place but also a herbal hop is there. Flavor is more yest ester with a creamy mouthfeel. Finish is a bit watery but the herbal hop is left on the tongue. Good saison that leans more on the hoppy side.

Pour is a hazy blonde with a large white head. Aroma is yeast esters and some fruit and white pepper. Flavor is juicy fruit gum with more white pepper and a estery finish. This was a pretty good simple saison.
