Light tartness in this saison; not as tart as many Afterthought saisons which I really appreciate. Lots of light fruity flavors including: lemon-lime, juicy white peach flesh, & light watermelon rind. No funkiness at all. Slightly sweet / lightly bready malt profile. Noticeable hint of oak, white pepper, and barely there bitterness in the finish. I like that the Riwaka hops really compliment the Afterthought Amer saison base without those overly oily & bitter concentrated hop flavors. Riwaka hops are meant for brewing with saisons. Well Done!

Clear yellow somewhat bubbly body with a tiny bubble ring. Lemon zest, lighthearted funk, grapefruit, huge peach and dry watermelon in the nose. Taste starts mildly with lemon zest, oak, yogurt funk, and peach, then an explosion of passion fruit, grapefruit, and guava on the palate, all the while staying bright and light in the feel, impressive. Finishes dry with a hop kiss of farewell, gets slightly watery as it warms in the center though. Hello porch beer
