473ml can - another tart, low ABV Saison, this time made mit Zitrone (sorry, been watching a lot of Better Call Saul lately).

This beer pours a slightly hazy, very pale golden straw 'colour', with a teeming tower of puffy, finely foamy, and mildly fizzy dirty white head, which leaves a few instances of cannonball splash aftermath pattern lace around the glass as it quickly blows off.

It smells of warmed lemon flesh, some grainy and biscuit cereal malt, a further understated wheatiness, kind of meaty Belgian yeast, and some plain earthy, musty, and dead floral hop bitters. The taste is gritty and crackery pale malt, faded lemon zest, some bland yeastiness, ephemeral earthy spice, and more super-duper underwhelming leafy, musty, and wan floral hoppiness.

The carbonation is adequate in its palate-satiating frothiness, the body a so-so medium weight, and mostly smooth, yet a tad thin in its general bearing. It finishes trending dry, and I'm not even going to conjecture why.

Overall - yeah, if it hasn't been made patently clear by now, I am fucking tired of bland offerings of out of season styles showing up around here. Dageraad typically knocks this kind of shit out of the park, but nope, not this time, and I cannot believe that I am actually now jonesing for a well-made pumpkin brew. Jebus.
