A pleasant saison.
Billed as having "Mountain tea, lavender & cinnamon notes" at 7.5ABV and 25 IBU.
Looks a murky blonde with OK foam that dissipates. Smells mildly herbal and mostly malts. Tastes are the same as I consider this a well-integrated beer. Although my mouth does not believe this is 7.5%, it is refreshing.

This saison is not dynamic like Waloonians are noted for, but they have their yeast. And it will take a while for Kykao and other Greek Micros to develop and keep such effective yeasts consistently.

I was able to get on their Facebook page, but not their website (nor did RateBeer have it correct.) But Kykao seems to be helping spread the micro-revolution to the Peloponese as Patra is the largest city on that peninsula . So. I give them big OA hugs in the startup category and wish them well.
