440ml can online from HoTM. Pours dark brown with beige foam. Aroma: caramel malts, berry fruits, mild citrus. Taste: light sweet & light to moderate bitter. Medium body with fine carbonation. Odd hops for the style tbh. But then I'm a sucker for an American brown ale.

Bottle online from the source. Pours hazed pale gold with a massive beige head. Aroma: sour apple, stone fruits, oak, funk. Taste: fruity, mild saison yeast, funk. Dry on the palate. Medium body with uber foamy carbonation. Solid rather than spectacular.
