Upbeat Wheat is a one-off saison made to celebrate early spring using a base of Northwest pilsner malt and raw wheat. The beer combines strata and simcoe hops with a fermentation carried out solely by a single brettanomyces strain, yielding a profile where classic saison meets modern yet modest hopping. 5%

From a crowler.
A straw yellow with a dense, white head with good retention and lacing, this looks good. The nose is a great blend of grass, raw wheat, lemon hops and a mildly clove and phenolic Brett note. Grain character is deep and rustic. The palate opens with a blend of Brett derived pineapple and clove notes, rich, fresh, earthy and deep. This is followed by mildly oily lemon hops and a rather raw wheat note. In conjunction with the pils malt straw note, the combination is actually quite inspired. Drying, grainy and mildly Brett like on the finish, this beer is excellent.
