Bottled reviewed last night to notes.

A- Poured to a few glasses with a slightly hazy golden yellow body. A small white head rises to about a half a finger. Decent retention as the cap falls to a puffy ring. Lacing starts with a nice sheet and some drizzle after that.

S- Brett funk is quite strong here with a barnyard, cherry pie feel. Slight lactic tartness comes to mind but the Brett is fairly dominant for me beyond slight vinous hints.

T- Wine opens up from the barrels a ton here and blends with the large Brett presence. Bretty funk, barnyard, tart cherry pie and mustiness. Lemony lactic and juniper starts to come out with some time. Apple fruitiness.

MF- Dried out light body with a crisp feel. Carbonation is at a moderate level. Fairly tart finish.

Funky brett bomb with a nice tartness and a strong grape/apple fruity feel from the wine and yeast. Juniper seems faded at this point but is slightly there.

$11.99 for a bomber. Poured into a tulip.

I must not be a Viking! Not a drain pour but never again. Very much a saison, super funk, but too extreme with the dry bitter finish. Must be the juniper berries. Some hefeweizen characteristics. 3.0

A – Pours a hazy pale yellow with a half-finger short-lived rocky white head, appears thin and watery. 3.0

S – FUNK! Some citrusy/lemon and orange notes, banana and bubblegum esters. 4.5

T – Farmyard, yeasty, a bit of spice, even less sour in the finish at the back of the palate, some apple peel in the finish as well. 3.0

MF – Medium-light body, super dry finish tending towards acrid. 2.75

(Served in a teku glass)
A- This beer pours a hazy pale yellow body with a big bubble pushing through a thick snow white head. There is a few tiny bubble trailing slowly up the side.

S- The tart earthy brightness has a flinty aroma and a brett white cheese mold that grows and blends with a raw silage finish.

T- The bright tart flavor leads to a green leaf note and some soft brett cheese rind that lingers. There are a some mellow red wine hints that appear but stay soft. As the beer opens there is some light wine tannin and alcohol note show up in the aftertaste.

M- The light mouthfeel has no astringency and some soft alcohol warmth when it warms a bit.

O- This beer has a very nice balance of tart character and brett funk with some wine barrel hints supporting it. However it doesn’t really merit the $10.00 price tag for a small bottle.

A: pours a clear gold with two fingers of white head that fades to a frothy ring with good lacing.

S: candy sugar, oak, wine, tart cherries and sour grapes, and some barnyard aromas dominate.

T: light Belgian spices and candy sugar with white wine, oak, and tart cherry flavors. The finish is lightly musty and clean.

M: light body with lowish carbonation, this beer just avoids being watery with the tart bite.

O: an enjoyable and very drinkable saison. Tart, a little sour, sweet, and funky, there's a lotgoing on here.
