Bottle from the brewery. Fruity, flowery aroma, ume plums, jasmine, herbs. Flavor is dry, slightly tart ume, and a herbal, grassy character that doesn’t seem to be from the hops. A bit of malt, a bit of fruity sweetness. Unique and delicious.a great summer refresher.

Can from the brewery. Flowery, fruity, spicy nose, hibiscus, lemon, jasmine, strawberry, plum, spicy saison yeast. complex nose. Deep pink color, hazy, with lace. First is a hit of crackery malt, then fruit, hibiscus, herbs, berries, citrus. Finish is crackers, berries, hibiscus, and some prickly hops. Body is silky and full. Could use a bit more carbonation. Hibiscus isn't my thing, but this is well done.

Hoppy, toasty, citrus, grass, nuts, bitter finish. Solid. Very solid. Pretty huge flavors all around. Maybe just slightly too bitter, but it makes you want to drink more and more.
