Cask. Why add Sorachi Ace to a saison? Otherwise well-made and clean. Excellent yeast usage. Just hate Sorachi.

On cask @ the Hanging Bat. Appearance - golden with a decent head. Nose - a combination of citrus and stone fruit, maybe apples/peaches/lemon. Taste - a bit more tropical, grapefruit and maybe pineapple. Palate - light to medium bodied with a creamy texture and a balanced dry finish. Overall - yep, decent.
