Draft glass at Brasserie St Somewhere, thanks a lot Bob. From the St Somewhere's vault, a lost keg. Brune, un peu cuivre, col beige. Arôme est de suite sur un bouquet rappelant une veille brune flamande, retrouve un rétro de funk plus de malt grillé accompagné par de bonnes notes de fruits noirs - prunes et raisins. Palais est finement aigre sans être dans le vinaigre, fruits noirs, petites notes collantes aux lèvres, oud bruin like tirant sur le stouterik. Caramel, grillé, léger chocolaté avec fruits noirs et fine note acidulée sur la fin. Je trouve le tout plaisant, et au delà des scores donnés.

Draft glass at Brasserie St Somewhere, thanks a lot Bob. Love the label taken straibght out of the FL archives. Dorée, col blanc épais. Arôme est léger, finement fruité sur de belles effluves d'oranges, pointe tropicale, rétro-nasal est rustique, belge avec une petite touche de levure et de grains. Palais est sec, rustique gardant bien le côté belge dans l'inspiration. Petite douceur fruitée orange qui tranche avec le côté plus noble de cette saison. L'amertume est délicate tirant sur un côté vert et toujours un petit effet funk, signature de Saint Somwhere.

Draft glass at Brasserie St Somewhere, thanks a lot Bob. Tried with a small glass of sea grape juice, first time trying this, apparently a lot of work going into collecting the grapes along the beaches, grapes rendering very little juice since most of the body is the seed. Dorée sur un léger côté paille, col blanc. Arôme offre un bouquet citronné, fruité vert rustique typique de saison belge avec la signature levure de St Somewhere, retrouve un rétro noble houblonné utilisé en amertume. L'effet de raisin de met semble ajouter une fine note minérale au boquet. Palais ets léger avec une petite acidité complétée par un effet salin voire minéral du raisin de mer. Note belge au niveau de la levure et des grains, palais est sec, très rafraichissant, l'effet de ce fruit est plaisant et difficile à décrire car je n'ai jamais fait face à ce type de goût. Petite touche épicée venant du seigle? le fini est rustique avec de belles notes belges, amertume reste léger.

Bomber from Beer of the Month club, served in tulip glass. Aged the bottle for 2 years. Cloudy brown and high carbonation - cork blew out when the cage was loosened. Tart dark fruit and red wine notes, with a dry finish.

Tart-n-sour farmhouse meets tart-n-sour citrus for a tart-n-sour haymaker to the palate. Massive amounts of orange, clementine, lemon, and grapefruit flavors coming from the heirloom citrus peel, while the saison grassiness underlines the fruit with a spicy herbaceous backbone. Moderate sweetness from the malts adds hints of clove and wheat, while the back end kicks up the funk, gaining a vein of straight horseblanket to shore up the fade. Tasty, but grows to be a bit much after a while--one pint and I'm good. Pours a lovely hazed orange-gold with a voluminous white head and modest lacing. Yeast, citrus, grass, and funk on the nose. Sparkly, boisterous feel is spot-on for a saison. Nice beer.

750 ml bottle into tulip glass, 2015 vintage bottling on the cork. Pours slightly hazy pale golden/yellow color with a 1-2 finger dense and fluffy white head with good retention, that reduces to a small cap that lingers. Nice spotty soapy lacing clings on the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation retaining the cap. Aromas of big lightly tart/tangy oranges, lemon, orange peel, peach, melon, pear, apple, peppercorn, light banana/clove, wheat, biscuit dough, hay, straw, herbal, floral, grass, light musty funk, and yeast earthiness. Damn nice aromas with great balance and complexity of fruity/spicy yeast, oranges/peels, and pale malt notes; with great strength. Taste of big lightly tart/tangy oranges, lemon, orange peel, peach, melon, pear, apple, peppercorn, light banana/clove, wheat, biscuit dough, hay, straw, herbal, floral, grass, light musty funk, and yeast earthiness. Light-moderate peppery yeast spiciness; light herbal/grassy/citrus peel bitterness, and wheat/fruit tang/tartness on the finish. Lingering notes of oranges, lemon, orange peel, peach, melon, pear, apple, peppercorn, light banana/clove, wheat, biscuit dough, hay, straw, herbal, floral, grass, light musty funk, and yeast earthiness on the finish for a good bit. Great complexity, robustness, and balance of fruity/spicy yeast, oranges/peels, and pale malt flavors; with a great malt/spiciness balance, and zero cloying/astringent flavors after the finish. Light-moderate increasing dryness from bitter/spiciness and carbonation. Medium-high carbonation and medium body; with a very smooth, moderately crisp, bready/grainy/sticky, and lightly tangy balanced mouthfeel that is great. Zero warming alcohol as expected of 5%. Overall this is an excellent fruited saison. All around great complexity, robustness, and balance of fruity/spicy yeast, oranges/peels, and pale malt flavors; very smooth, crisp, and refreshing to drink with the modestly bitter/spicy/drying finish. Very flavorful for the ABV. Well rounded saison yeast complexity, with balanced oranges/peels and pils/wheat malts. Not a whole lot of brett, but solid presence. A very enjoyable offering, and spot on style example.
