650ml bottle - a Saison brewed with 'Tasmanian pepperberries' and unspecified New Zealand hops.
This beer pours a slightly hazy, salmon-tinged pale golden yellow colour, with four fingers of puffy, finely foamy, and somewhat creamy off-white head, which leaves some splotchy and sudsy lace in places around the glass as it slowly but surely disperses.
It smells of peppery florals, a muddled domestic and exotic fruitiness, grainy pale malt, some cereal-forward wheatiness, and a few tame earthy wild yeasty beasties. The taste is semi-sweet, zesty dark berries, still indistinct citrus esters, rainbow peppercorns, lavender, bready and grainy pale malt, a lesser wheaten character, Saison yeast, and some subtle blended tropical fruitiness.
The carbonation is average in its palate-assuring frothiness, the body a decent medium weight, and sort of smooth, as that floral and peppery essence kind of makes for somewhat shrill company here. It finishes off-dry, all fruity, citrusy (I know), peppery, and yeasty.
Overall - this is an interesting take on this now seemingly world-wide style. I haven't had Aussie pepperberries in a beer for about 10 years now, and I've almost forgotten the impact that they have. Worthy of checking out, especially if like me, you've grown tired of the base Saison/Farmhouse ale.
