Growler filled at the brewery hours ago. Hazy lemon yellow color with a decent sized frothy white head that slowly recedes. Huge lemony citrus aromas with a sweet bready malt underneath. Light to medium body, super easy to drink. Great beer.

Tap at the source. Slightly hazy deep yellow color with a smallish short lived bubbly white head. Tart lemon with a hint of saline and some fruity dank hop aroma and flavor to counter. Tart and refreshing on this balmy November day.

500 ml bottle purchased at the brewery. Side by side comparison with the standard version. Same clear gold color and carbonation as the standard version. I used the same glass. Aroma has a lemon and lightly earthy nuance that covers the apricot. Also the yeast is notable.
The flavor is a direct reflection of the aroma. Yeast plays well with the fruit and carry over notes from the dry hopping. Like the standard version this has a great fruity tartness after the sip. The tartness lingers just slightly after the sip. The texture is juicy. Out of the two variants, this wins for me.

500 ml bottle purchased at the brewery. Side by side comparison with the Dry Hopped variant. Clear gold color with ample carbonation in a chalice. Aroma is funky apricot, musty lambic yeast and mild peach hints.
The flavor is tart with a lower sourness. Carbonation is lively and nicely effervescent. Right now this is moderately fruity after the swallow but for sure could grow much more sour after some collaring. Still a very nice fruity tart lambic.

Bottle from Bert’s Hazy lemon yellow color with a bubbly white head that slowly recedes to a ring on top. Lemony tart with plenty of tropical hop and some earthy barnyard. Bitter and funk with some light pity citrus. Pretty damn good beer.

Poured into a tulip, the appearance was a hazy burnt yellow to orange color with a nice thick finger-ed white foamy head. Dissipates nicely with a foamy sticky lace.
The aroma takes in sweet pulpy citrus, some white pepper, subtle sweet bready/yeasty notes, dried apricots.
The flavor mainly is the same - more so blends the sweet lemon to breadiness. Rolling bready sweet aftertaste and finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a nice sessionability about it. White pepper balances with some harshness but doesn’t distract from the beer itself.
Overall, damn good saison or in this case yes, Grisette. Would definitely love to have again.

750 ml growler filled at the brewery. Hazy yellow color, no head. Aroma is floral, mild herbal hops, pale grains.
The flavor is mostly the same the aroma with a floral hop bitterness that lingers after the sip and turns mildly herbal. The grain is just enough sweetness to give balance. Borderline a IPA bitterness. Texture is crisp in a medium body. Enjoyable.

750 ml growler filled at the brewery. Hazy yellow color, no head. Aroma is floral and citrus hops with a light sour wheat essence.
The dry hopping does carry some hops into the flavor. The base gose has plenty of lime and lemon flavor with a subtle tartness in the finish. Lacto is also subtle. Crisp and refreshing texture. I can’t pickup any salt (which is fine by me) Very nicely done.

Growler poured at the Source on 1 October, 2016. Consumed right now, in my hand, with a snifter. Color is a mildly hazy golden yellow with fast dying head. Aroma shows light danky pine, malt and Brettanomyces yeast culture.
The flavor has a dry pine upfront with light notes of tropical fruit in the center. Herbal bitterness mixed with a mild funky yeast finish. I enjoyed every single drop of this brew.
