(Draught at Bryden’s, Toronto ON June 19th 2013) Pours a medium yellow, light haze may just be chill, decent pillowy white head that left a bunch of lace. Aroma grapefruit flesh, canned pineapple, catty, faintest yeast and grain behind but Citra owns the nose, slightly tart. Flavour has grapefruit rind, a bit of pineapple and a some catty hop funk to start, lightly bitter. Mid-palate dries with a sweetish malt lingering in the background, flavor has some citrus hop bitterness and light spice, earthy yeast plus some pale malt grains. Finish is fairly dry with a citra character lingering. Body moderate for a saison, carb also moderate for the style. Fresh, more Citra than saison and definitely on the "American Farmhouse" side of the style but a good alternative to an APA on a sunny day.
