Widely known to be gregarious, Gnomes are constantly gathering with friends to enjoy a beer. Recently, they determined to create a new beer perfect for these occasions. Generous quantities of fruity American hops and fruity and spicy Saison yeasts bring together two favorite styles: West Coast IPAs and Saisons. Go grab a can and some friends and raise a toast to "All your Gnomies!"

Deep golden color, slightly hazy, and pours a nice thick head with good retention.
Interesting fruity/spicy nose - smells a bit Belgian, and a bit American IPA. Some pepper and grapefruit.
Big hit of grapefruit hop flavors up front, with the yeast character a bit more subtle. A bit more pepper and clove midmouth, and a soft bitterness in the finish. Flavors have a subtlety that makes this more drinkable than I would have anticipated.
Fairly light body, and high carbonation. Definitely has a Belgian mouthfeel.
Honestly didn't know what to expect with this one. Mashups like this can be a disaster, but I should know to trust that Silver Branch will make it work harmoniously. A crisp and refreshing 7.4% ABV beer.

This is a terrific beer. I thought it was the best beer from Silver Branch I've had, my friend loved it too, and even one of the employees at the brewery said that it was his favorite. It hits all the right notes and is definitely one to try if you have the opportunity.

Poured from the can into a tulip glass.
Big bubbly head, reaching a somewhat frothy four fingers, but has real soapy retention. Dissolves in big pops pretty quickly. Body color is a nice deep gold orange, like a great pictured sunset just like the can, and some clarity but also with haze. Some hint of light carbonation but not much. To the light the beer glows a golden yellow real nicely.
Delicious nose. Hop forward more so than saison, but gives to citrus lemon, deep orange rind and even a touch of peach like flavors. Real nice mix of fruity hop character. Not all saison is lost either, touches some thick yeast kick and funk slightly in the mix as well.
Palate is a nice touch. Crisp hitting mouthfeel, with lively carbonation that brings out some gas but also the bigger flavors. Good simple saison funk and fruity hop quality in the mid palate. Peach to citrus fruit flavor wash nicely with real mineral rocky and sharp yeast esters. Finishes a bit heat warm strangely, but also gaseous.
A nice take and mix of styles that is very fun to drink together. Some things cancel each other out, but more things nicely compliment each other here.

Orange-gold with some chill haze, big white head, good retention and lace
Mango, orange, passion fruit, pear, and a ton of other fruit in the nose
Slightly tart, a mélange of tropical fruit flavors, with a light caramel body and dry, lingering finish
Medium light bodied and well carbonated
Damn tasty. Rare to find well done Belgian IPAs.
