Poured into a tulip, the appearance was a hazy burnt yellow to orange color with a nice thick finger-ed white foamy head. Dissipates nicely with a foamy sticky lace. The aroma takes in sweet pulpy citrus, some white pepper, subtle sweet bready/yeasty notes, dried apricots. The flavor mainly is the same - more so blends the sweet lemon to breadiness. Rolling bready sweet aftertaste and finish. On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a nice sessionability about it. White pepper balances with some harshness but doesn’t distract from the beer itself. Overall, damn good saison or in this case yes, Grisette. Would definitely love to have again.

 

 

 

 

Poured a hazy pale yellow color. Huge white head that settled quickly.
Funky, fruity aroma.
The taste expanded on the aroma. Funk, certainly, but also lemon and melon.
Tart and dry.

Clean and dry. Melon notes from the hops. Carb is impressive. Body is incredibly light. This grisette can hold its own against any other. Looks lovely in the glass.

 

 

 

 

Pours a completely opaque golden yellow color with a huge bubbly white head. Looks like a lemon creamsicle. The head is gone in a hurry and leaves little to no lacing.

The aroma brings more barnyard funk than James Brown playing a set for a bunch of horses. I also get some lemon, and a touch of spiciness from the hops.

The flavor is extremely musty with plenty of earthy, brett notes. The hops are well presented, and give a nice fruity character. Finishes relatively tart.

The feel is light bodied with medium carbonation. A bit lightly carbonated for the style. Has a subtle, dry finish.

Overall, a pretty solid grisette. There's plenty of funk to go around if you enjoy that sort of thing, but the other notes are done relatively well. Could use a little more carbonation and crispness on the finish but still solid all around.

 

 

 

From bottle. Pours a hazy orange with a one finger head that don't quit. Smell is a nice balance of fruit and that yeasty farmhouse. Something else in there I can't put my finger on. No arguing the taste falls a bit flat in comparison. Weak fruit and a spice that keeps picking up. Light, refreshing. Would have expected more carb considering the Brett.

Pours a very hazy straw color with a big fluffy head that retains nicely throughout drinking. Smell is the classic farmhouse yeast. Taste is yeasty and bright, slight hop bitterness with a really clean finish. Maybe they've refined this one because I'm not sure what other reviews are missing on this one

Very hazy but not opaque very pale yellow, big fluffy white head.
Aroma is huge Brett funk. Barnyard for days.
Flavor is funky, but more restrained. Decent fruity hop presence.
Light, refreshing mouthfeel. Moderate bitterness. Finishes dry, but not overly so.
Someone on the forums called this baby Dorothy, which I can see. Aroma is a bit funkier, but the flavor profile is very similar. High price, but nice Brett saison.

Starts off looking impressive. Large bubbled head takes up 2/3 of the glass but it settles quickly leaving nearly no lace and a bit of edge bubbles. The liquid is cloudy, whitish yellow.

Fresh, clean smell of untoasted malt and floral hop spice. Attractive. I also get some coriander, sage and a bit of lavender.

Very sour tasting, definitively a Saison. There's some whither yeastiness in the swallow and the aftertaste is tart. Relatively thin body with an elevated carbonation level. I get a touch of bitterness throughout.
