12oz bottle. Murky amber-orange body. Thin, oily head. US Amber-Saison just sounds like a bad idea. Has some farmhouse-esque yeast tones I suppose. The amber malt is not overbearing, but the end product is. Tastes kind of like a sub-par Belgian Amber, whereas the Zenith was a little more refined in its style. Unique enough product, but don’t see myself going back for more.

12oz bottle. Hazy yellow-orange-tan body. Foamy white head. Peppery, spicy yeast tones. Pretty tolerable for a "session" Saison. Clove, coriander. Medium bodied, pretty drinkable. A touch thin, lacks much depth..but at the same time is a little more grounded than most US Saisons. OK.

Sample at the taproom. Clear golden color with a medium white head that burns away steadily to an outer ring. Stringy lacing on the glass. Aroma of grassy hops, malt and fruit. Light-bodied with flavors of spicy hops, biscuit malt and fruit. The finish is mildly bitter with a grassy hop aftertaste. Decent overall.
