Bottle: Poured a bright golden color ale with a large white foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of sour notes with some vinous notes and oak is quite enjoyable. Taste is a nice mix of tart notes with some clearly identifiable oak notes with some vinous notes bring more balance. Body is about average with great carbonation. Super enjoyable saison with great barrel-aging in the Chardonnay barrels.

Catching up some rates from last weeks trip to Newfoundland. Taster at the source. Hazy grapefruit orange in color without much of a head. Lots of fruit and lemony tart with just a hint of earthy hop to counter. Pretty tasty tart ale.

Catching up some rates from last weeks trip to Newfoundland. Taster at the source. Slightly hazy light golden color. Bits of citrus tropical fruit and hints of earth and pine with a bit too much sweet bread and alcohol and a just a hint of diacetyl. Decent beer but needs some tweaks.

Catching up some rates from last weeks trip to Newfoundland. Taster at the source. Slightly hazy copper with reddish highlights and a milky white head that persists. Lots of caramel and a hint of chocolate with some earth and light smoke to counter. Nice red ale.
