Spelt It Dealt It
Urban Family Brewing Co.

Pours a clear golden amber with a modest foam in the Troubadour tulip. Rather thin-bodied but sensationally drinkable. It's more like a Pilsner with a Belgian yeast. Fragrant with flowers and yeast. Very aromatic.

Slight yeasty bitterness but enough to balance the malt. This is quite fruity. Just slightly sweet. A lighter and less funky Saison but a very appropriate level of flavor for this quaffable version.

I think this is pretty delicious, even if there are many more elegant examples of the style. If it was cheap and in cans it would replace Fremont Saison in my affections. From the 22 oz bottle purchased at Bottleworks in Seattle.

Poured into a Gulden Draak tulip. Pours a hazy light to medium golden amber with a thin white head that dissipates to patches with light slippery lacing. Aroma of bready, lightly biscuit malt, clove, mixed sweet fruit. Flavor is similar, with bready malt, clove, stone and apple family fruit, banana; finishes with fruit esters and mild grassy hops. Medium bodied. A hard to catagorize ale, on the semi-sweet fruit and malt end of the farmhouse ale spectrum. Kind of tasted like a hybrid between a sweetish tripel and a robust wheat beer. Interesting, but idiosynchratic. The second triticum beer I've had this year after Stone's Quadrotricale. Both fun to drink but illustrate why this grain is uncommon for beer.
