This French-style Saison was first brewed in collaboration with the fine folks at The Royale to celebrate the Feast Day of Louis IX. Named after the statue of St. Louis that sits atop Art Hill, this farmhouse ale is a tribute to our beloved city.

Had on tap. Cloudy golden body with a white head with spotted lacing. Smell and taste are clones: bubblegum, belgian yeast with supporting lemon, flowers, simple grain and a kiss of white pepper. Light and pleasant delivery, but kind of bland, no yeast depth either. Feel is frothy, bright and soft.

Pours perfectly clear and crisp. Golden in color with a thin sudsy white head.
Smell is a spicy peppery slightly floral aroma. Bit of a bready undertone.
Taste follows the nose with a peppery spicy flavor, some floral hops are present along with a banana like flavor. The flavor profile is much closer to a belgian ale than a saison. Still a good tasting beer in its own right.
Feel is light and crisp, smooth and easy drinking.
Overall a good tasting beer in its own right, but a bit unusual for a saison. Medium carbonation and very refreshing.
