On tap at Council, pours a hazy blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out floral hops, with light pine, and crisp biscuity malt. Flavour is complex in the hop department, with floral and piney hops, some dankness and crisp biscuity malt. Wonderfully constructed. Excellent IPA.

Super tart but also super flavorful of peach and nectarines. Slight funk on the nose and front but works well.

750 mL bottle poured. Picked up at Chucks shortly after Council was introduced to the area. Awesome! If my budget was endless, I would have snagged them all, but instead, I went with my go to flavor. Love raspberries. Glowing pinkish pour. Tart, but fresh red raspberries going on. True to the fruit, opposed to a jammy constant I would expect. Very flavorful, and I like the lighter abv in these saison. Good series. Great beer.

... that's right brotha. 32oz crowler pours with a murky messy opaque dull copper to deep dull gold body that supports a thin near bright white head of foam. The modest aroma offers up mango, pineapple, tropical fruity earthy tea and then mango juice drizzled grapefruit. The taste delivers a smooth slightly hop bitter sort of mineral/leafy sensation that quickly leads to pineapple infused mango, sweetened citrusy floral hops, mango molested spicy hops and then fruity tea notes. It ends with lingering sweetened tropical tea, sweetened grapefruit and mango-d spicy hops. Pretty nice.
