This is another lactic SP sour that slaps you right in the face! Thankfully, it’s also full of raspberry dopeness, and I can get behind that part fosho

Interesting plum-hued body with a bit of haze and a sudsy off-white head produced with moderate pour. Overripe raspberry billows out of the glass, with additional aromatics of fruit leather, champagne, and wildflowers. Very lovely although not particularly complex. Flavors lean tart, as per usual with SP, although the intense raspberry really helps balance things out here. Kinda like eating a raspberry with a lot of seeds, resulting in a more tart, tannic character. Feel is light, astringent and puckering. Overall pretty decent, reminds me of Drie Fonteinen's Framboos (and at a similar price point, $50/750ml)

750 ml bottle, poured into a New Glarus glass at ~40 degrees F.

L: Pours a clear bright ruby-garnet red, at least for the first pour. Forms a thin, fizzy, short-lived white head that swiftly dies to a ring.

S: The nose is all tart raspberries, with some soft oak tannins wafting in the backdrop.

T: Sharp, tart, sour raspberries, with just a slight tang beneath of oak.

F: Light, and not terribly lively.

O: Definitely framboise to the core, with a du Fermier acidity.

Pours a dull, matte pink that resembles the fresh of grapefruit. No foam on this bottle pour. Pour is from the bottom 1/3 of the bottle. Aroma is strong raspberry (had it all caps in my notes). Stone and grass add depth, before a tart finish dries out the nose and cues a sip. Flavor profile is raspberries through and through. Stone, grass, and grapefruit round out each sip. It's sweet, then tart. Mouth feel is creamy with a mild silt throughout. Thickness is medium-thick, coming in on the more full side of saisons. Overall, a plump, ripe saison jammed up and full of raspberries.

Bottle pour. Reviewed from notes.

750 ml bottle today. Poured a deep and dark ruby color. Beautiful beer in the glass. Instant aroma of raspberries. Very fragrant. Smells fruity and tart. Flavor was full of raspberry with some acidity and a hint of vinegar. A real treat though. Great body for the style. Good carb too. Overall, outstanding iteration of a fruited saison. Took a long time for me to track this one down and would do it again.

Bottle. Garnet pour with a white head. Big raspberry bouquet. Tasty with loads of raspberry highlights. Nice caramel malt and oak backbeats. Good body and mouthfeel.

Pouted from a 750 mL bottle. The color is very pretty dark red hazy color. The aroma is a bit of funk with a big explosion of raspberry, love it. The taste follows the smell with the typical SP acidity and a big raspberry flavor, super jammy. Its an awesome beer and tasty nonetheless.
