Draft 13 oz pour to a tulip. Darker, semi cloudy orange pour. Pumpkin color I suppose. Fading head. This comes off as a true pumpkin saison. Not a whole bunch of extra stuff thrown in. Nice pumpkin flavor, maybe a touch of spice from the base style alone. Touch of a carb bite, unique taste throughout. Pretty good pumpkin brew.

Draft pour to a tulip at Hop and Hound, then another to follow. Strangely, I've had a few Tin Dog saisons, but never the Tin Dog Saison. Golden orange pour, quite cloudy. Oily active fizz head. Strong aroma of Belgian character. Leaves quite a lingering impression. Flavor has a nutty and biscuit grain combo, nutty linger for sure. Slight funk to it. Minimal. I'd call it a little tart too, after thinking about it for 20 ounces. Slightly sharp edge. Nice flavor. Enjoy this saison.

Bomber bottle picked up a while back at Hop and Hound. A slightly cloudy golden orange pour, bright appearance, a patchy, thin oily head. Interesting brew here, and unique. With how much barrel treatment, and grape impressions there are here, it's hard to even tell what the base beer even is. Saison makes sense, as the room discusses. Who knows. Could be a golden ale. Oak constant, a mix of different grapes. A nice carb bite to this. Cool and slightly tart finish. Has a slight brett feel, despite no consideration of it being a brett beer. A very fun beer here.

Draft pour to a schooner at Tin Dog. An attractive, glowing juicy orange pour. Active fizz head. The beer is exactly what it's advertised as. Tons of fresh basil and juicy orange fruit on the nose. A nice compliment. Flavor is a little heavier on the herbal side than the fruit, but I wouldn't call either overpowering. Good flavor. Refreshing, and extra unique brew here.

Draft pour to a tulip at Tin Dog. A shiny golden orange pour. Surprisingly bitter IPA here, full of grapefruit peel, slight juiciness, but thin overall. Aroma is similar citrus fruit, but more intense. Almost harsh. Biting hop bitterness. Sharp taste overall. Not as smooth as I would typically like to see out of an IPA, but this was unique and overall enjoyable.

Draft pour to a schooner at Tin Dog. A mostly clean, pale golden pour. Active fizz head. A slightly tart indication garoma. Tart citrus, slight funk. Flavor has a distinct berry, as advertised to be from the hops, but incredibly precise. White grape, a touch of spice. Like there is a touch of rye in this one almost. A wine like late linger. Interesting brew.

Growler pours out a amber color topped with a small head. Nose is pine some citrus and a caramel malt. Taste is more of the light hop combo and a mellow malt bill.
