Description
Burdock brewery set up shop in what used to be an old Portuguese chicken restaurant, and they transformed the space into an artist-driven bar/restaurant/music hall/microbrewery run by a group of musicians and music lovers. They offer a rotating list of clean pale ales, complex saisons, crisp pilsners, zippy sours, and beer-wine hybrids that are all brewed in house.

375mL bottle, pours a hazy blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out lots of rustic saison yeast, some gentle lemon rind, straw and mineraly notes. Flavour is much along the same lines, with rustic saison yeast, straw, mineraly notes, and a touch of lemon. Rustic and mineraly finish. Simple but decent.
