Pours a brassy golden color, doesn't make much of a head nor does it provide much semblance of retention. The aroma was also pretty pungent. Kind of came off very similar to their other saison that had a lot of tripel characteristics, but they just swapped out a different yeast on this one.

Taste I enjoyed slightly more here, still had a taste and mouthfeel of more alcohol than your average saison and higher than my preferred tasting range. Tasting notes of cognac, french oak, peppercorn, pineapple boilermaker. But any heat was assisted by a brisker mouthfeel that didn't allow as much sag and burn as the previous one, despite them both having those hybrid like tripel higher abv and fruitiness edges. Interesting take on saisons, but ultimately for me, probably one and done.

I added this beer to this Next Glass owned database. I also wrote the first review ever for it for said database. Content generator.
