My saison had some obvious oxidation but let me tell you about it. Somethign happened to this bottle to change this beer. The nose does not match the taste. First the color the color never really improved. It is not opaque but it is milky and cloudy and what you call muddy. Everything thrown up into the beer. Against a strong light it looked like thick peach nectar. The head really was powerful at first then falls flat. No bubbles to see.
The nose has evidence of a vibrant and cheeky wine barrel. the cabernet sauvignon. You can smell it and a bit of wood. An exotic fruit ( that's because I have never had it before) what I think were sharp grasses now more like dried leaves. Then a flatness that pinches the nose. The palate is cut short. There is obvious paper taste in the beer and it lingers up over all the flavors after you drink it. The malt survived to show you it was fluid, creamy. The sugar has separated a bit and seems like a thin sheet over the malt where once they had been joined and the hop bitter has been pushed at the finish. The paper bites now and that's oxidation. There is no carbonation and I think it's because of all the stuff in the beer.
I am not reluctant to try this brewer again. This is the first I have seen from them and lets see some more. Cheers everyone!

A nice saison, with funky medicinal notes of bandaid that stick out in front. The elderberries lend a subtle, but noticeable accent to an otherwise solid saison. Altogether, a compelling offering that makes me think this brewery has more up their sleeves that I'm eager to try
