Reviewed from notes. Poured from a 750 mL bottle into an El Catador Barrel-Aged glass.

A: Hazy orangish gold, with average visible carbonation and a thin white head that fades fairly quickly.

S: Huge sage up front. Lemongrass, coriander, and biscuit malts. A light saison-like pepperiness. I guess there's a light Brettanomyces aroma also – but the sage buries pretty much everything else.

T: Sage, lemon and citrus rind with notes of Pledge Dusting solution. Coriander and a dry earthy Brett. Light biscuit malts, some saison yeast, and mild pepperiness. It finishes with more dry Brett and sage.

M: An average heft to the body. Carbonation sensation is average to just a little low. Alcohol presence low as well.

O: OK...as it warms, the Brett and light citric tartness grow and the sage decreases a bit. Or maybe I'm getting sage-fatigue and can’t taste it as much anymore. Either way, it does get better about halfway through the drink. It's still not my favorite, but definitely gets better as warms.
