We took our dark saison, packed with flavors of dried plum and dates and conditioned it on black currants. Forward flavors of Cabernet Sauvignon blend with a mildly sweet acidity and the base saison to add another layer of complexity to an already multi-faceted beer.

On-tap at Canon & Draw Brewing Company, Richmond, VA
A: The beer is black in color—when held up to a bright light traces of dark red are visible near the corners of the glass. It poured with a narrow collar of off white bubbles around the edge of the glass.
S: Light aromas of yeast are preset in the nose along with hints of black currants.
T: The taste has flavors of yeast along tin notes of black currants.
M: It feels light- to medium-bodied on the palate and has a moderate amount of carbonation.
O: This is a yeasty saison but the aromas and flavors of red currants help to make things more palatable on the smell and taste.
Serving type: on-tap
