Can from Sawdust city brewery. Cloudy amber pour, with a medium white head. Aroma has got huge juicy citrus notes and an intense lactic sourness, and some subtle barnyard aromas too. Lively carbonation, and a good mouth feel. The finish is very very tart, with a touch of lambic sourness with a huge hop wallop. I think a new style is born.

Bottle: Poured a blonde color ale with a large white foamy head with good retention and light lacing. Aroma of spicy malt notes with some nice citrusy hops notes. Taste is a mix of spicy rye mal;t notes with some dry floral undertones with some hints of tropical notes. Body is about average for style with good carbonation and no perceptible alcohol. Enjoyable saison with a nice level of complexity.
