Bottle 75 cl. Courtesy of TheCheeseMan. Pours a clear amber with an off-white head. Rather sophisticated aroma of Brett and acetone. Medium body, sweet overripe dark fruits and marzipan - again quite complex. Massive carbonation. Ends dry. Delicious. 230410

Bottle 75 cl. Courtesy of TheCheeseMan. Pours a cloudy and opaque golden with a small white head. Sweet and spicy, fruity nose. Medium body, extreme carbonation, really, really overcarbonated. Sweet fruit, sweet spices - the chamomile comes through. Dry and tart. Suffers a little from the massive carbonation. 230410

draft @ St. Somewhere, thanks Bob. Pours golden straw, thick white head. Aroma and flavors had the typical St Somewhere signature without the Saison aspect. Yeasty mouthfeel with notes of citrus hops, light malty mouthfeel. Palate is light and refreshing. I could see this one as St-Somewhere’s year round beer. Unique and a nice departure from the other St. Somewhere beers.

cask @ Datz, St. Somewhere night. I have to congratulate Bob on getting me buzzed again on yet another incredible brew. Pours cloudy orange, and for a cask it packed some a rather thick lasting white-pinkish head. Excellent head retention. Aroma, nice palmetto berry and Belgian yeast nose. The sweet sugary concoction of the Lectio pulls through adding a nice dimension to the beer. There is a lot going there, mix of champagne yeast with wood barrel aged and aroma of light tartness.As the beer warms up, the hibiscus seemed to come more pronounced. Flavors, wood/oak goodness though not overly present, floral notes followed by the dry hopping hibiscus adding a lot of floral flavors to the palate. This is all meshed with sweet dark sugar, champagne yeast mouthfeel and oak, lingering berry sourness that doesn’t overpower the experience. Complex and interesting, finish keeps a mild spicy touch, mix of floral, barrel, mild sourness. Perfect carbonation for a cask. This one ranks on top of my St Somewhere beers, showing that aging these beers only improve the overall experience.

Pours deep amber into a snifter. Off-white head recedes to skim surface. Sour tropical fruit aromas. Sharp sour pencil shavings upfront turning quickly to rotting tropical vegetation. Lasting rotten sour vegetable finish.
