12oz pour into a snifter, consumed at IG for the sum of $4.50. This is a recipe created by Sherrece, an Iron Goat bartender/server (IG is allowing employees not normally involved on the brewing side of things come up with small batch recipes). This is a brewed with a French Saison yeast and brewed with some sort of simple syrup that starts with an "F" that is apparently a part of the cocktail world.

Poured into a snifter, this was an opaque, hazy, honeyish color, with a bone-white head that dropped fairly quickly yet left lots of streaky, spotty lace.

Spicy, earthy, and a bit "bubble gummy" in the nose, along with banana-y cloves. There's something I can't quite put my finger on that has a floral character as well.

Taste follows aroma. There's a lot going on here. Sweet, tart, refreshing all pretty much hits the taste buds at once. The finish is surprisingly dry for all that went before it, but not in a jarring way.

Fairly light bodied, with a lightly creamy yet effervescent mouthfeel.

I love this beer. At under 6%, it's somewhat at the lower end of the spectrum of Saison strength, but I think that just ups it's drinkability. I really hope this gets brewed again. Well done, Sherrece!
