following a de garde framboise in our lineup of raspberry beers to start off thanksgiving, this one was put into an almost impossibly position, but surprising everyone, it was more than up for the task, really one of the better beers we opened all day. it certainly looks muted on the color, no electric red here, but a like frosted pink hue and a huge rising white head. its insane how dry this is, thats what i notice and am impressed by first, its tart sure, and the fruit is there but not over the top, but this champagne dryness is striking, it gives the beer a real cleanness despite its mature funkiness too, insane carbonation also makes it seem wild and alive, incredible texture and feel. the fruit isnt over the top here, in that its natural and present and all, but i can still taste i nice quality saison underneath it, very dry, herbaceous, and estery, complex but the fruit is only one part of it, and i really dig that. there is a light medicinal thing to the tartness thats almost lambic-like for a second, and cool with the fruit. rushing gushing refreshing feel is awesome too. overall a very special and tasty beer, super fairly priced, and another funky one from wiley roots that is professional and exceptional. really well done, i need to get up to greeley and check them out in person!
