Leeway
Fox Farm Brewery

Cloudy golden straw color with a massive white head.

Aromas of coriander, lemon juice, grapefruit, orange rind and wheat.

Flavor has a lot of citrus; namely grapefruit and lemon with a touch of lime. Coriander follows with some sea salt and funk. Interesting.

Feel is light bodied with good carbonation.

Overall this is a great and rather unique beer. Has all the elements of both a saison and a gose, yet isn't muddled.

Batch 5

Appearance: Pours a somewhat hazy goldenstraw with a one finger head which fades a bit too rapidly; spotty lacing

Smell: Funky lemon, sour wheat, sea salt and coriander

Taste: Sour wheat and tart lemon forward with the sea salt and coriander developing; growing sourness into the finish; funk in the aftertaste

Mouthfeel: Light to medium body with moderate carbonation

Overall: More of a Gose than a Saison to my tastebuds but this beer packs plenty of flavor

 

 

12 oz can poured into a snifter. Pours a very light and not-quite-clear yellow with a quickly fading head. Aroma and flavor feature citrus (lime up front), oak tannins, light funk, coriander, salt, wheat, and a hint of saison yeast esters. Spritzy, light-but-not-watery mouthfeel. Overall, I thought this was a much tastier beer than the mandarin version.
Batch 3

 

 

Pours murky, gold in color with one inch head. Taste is funk, lemon and sea salt. Light bodied, funky with high carbonation. Interesting beer that is a gose/saison mix and captures the best of both styles. Really clean. A joy to drink.

 

 

 

Batch 1. Light, and mostly clear yellow color. Very effervescent, with plenty of fizzy white head that doesn't last long, but is consistent for what I would expect from the style. Smell is very nice. Similar base aroma to their core Freckled Fields beer, but with a really nice layer of lemony citrus mixed in. Aroma certainly hints that this will be a clean, crisp and tart beer. This ended up largely being the case, although it was slightly less tart than I expected. This is a very tasty beer and largely follows the nose. A well done farmhouse, with a dose of citrus makes this a very, very easy drinking beer. I think I'm picking up the sea salt, although that may be the power of suggestion. Can't pick out the coriander. Tiniest bit of funk in the aftertaste. Great summer / warm weather beer.
