Can at the motel in Austin - picked up at Stein’s in NOLA. Pours hazy orange-gold with a creamy, off-white head. Light dry yeast in the nose, soft grass, toasted grains. Light sweet flavour with notes of wheat, biscuits, husky grains, bitter grass, straw, lemon peel. Light bodied with average carbonation. Pretty well balanced and clean on the finish, with more grassy bitterness, citrus rind, pithy lemon, slight minerality, mellow yeast expression. Solid, very drinkable saison.
