Green hued dirty gold color. Very cloudy. Smallish head, leaves some very minute spots on the glass.
The smell starts yeasty and then becomes sour, lemony.
Very dry and far more bitter than sour. Very high carbonation with a rather watery body. Good presence of the farmhouse flavors but not as earthy as many. Dry bitter aftertaste yet the swallow has a touch of sourness.

Poured from a fresh growler into the modified tulip glass.
A - Wonderful clarity, a hint of haze, not out of line. Slinky trails of carbonation meander through a
lemon yellow backdrop. A loose knit cap of white mixed size spheres stitch across the top. No lacing.
S - A clash of lemon zest and ash start things off, late season grains, spelt, winter rye, follow up,
the slightest aromatic hop in the middle tries desperately but cannot compete. A clear yeast ester from
what I suspect is the French Farmhouse strain. White pepper and muted funk finish things up.
T - Dusty dark grain, old bread in a good way, sunflower seed, and honey on toast, traces of lemongrass,
white pepper, and dried kumquat. Refined flavors and well displayed.
M- Soft water profile, fine use of base malt all feed into a fine experience. The Esters from the yeast will
in time take this over, delightfully dry throughout the experience. This offering cries for runny cheese to go with it. the palate feel is light and the coating is quickly cleaned up by light carbonation. Linger is soft lemon drop and forever.
O - A very nice saison, peppery and dry, hints of fruit, with a great body. The brewers have expressed themselves in a most delightful way.
Cheers
