Best American Saisons

Jack D'or by pretty things

 

I'm surprised Prairie hasn't been mentioned more; they do some really well made saisons. Logsdon (Peche n' Brett and Seizon Bretta) is up there with the best of them. Beachwood Blendery is dropping some amazing stuff, but they're a year or two out from releasing whales.

Aside from that, Stone saison is pretty good.........................................................ha

 

Blackberry Farm Summer Saison. Just amazing.

 

Sofie
Saison Brett
Crooked stave stuff

 

Stillwater makes dependable American Saisons.

 

You are aware that as of last year Pretty Things is out of business?

My favorite American saisons (and I throw in fruited sours) in no particular order..

Hill Farmstead
Casey
SARA
de Garde
Side Project
Russian River
Jester King
Tired Hands
Wicked Weed
Rare Barrel

 

Hennepin (Ommegang)
Tank 7 (Boulevard)
El Cedro (Jester King)

 

I'm surprised by what I'm reading here and it will no doubt push me to try a couple beers a second time.

My personal favorites are from Logsdon but also like Prairie a lot too.

 

i like tank 7 offhand, but the Le Merle I am having right now is quite nice.

 

Arthur and Saison du Ble are the two best I have had. My favorite non-Brett, easily-available Saison would definitely be Surly CynicAle.

 

If you like funky saisons, the stuff out of Forest & Main is pretty damn good. McKenzie's is also still pumping out some under the radar gems.

 

You can still find their stuff around, though.

 

SARA saison Bernice

 

Hm wasn't this just out there, here goes
Baudelaire IO - Jolly Pumpkin Artisan Ales
All My Tomorrows - Great Raft Brewing
Blood Orange Saison - Upslope Brewing Company <== Didn't get much love here, but I loved this beer
Tank 7 Farmhouse Ale - Boulevard Brewing Co.
Brooklyn Sorachi Ace - Brooklyn Brewery

 

All their saisons are wonderful. A personal favorite being simply their Classic Saison.

 

Sante Adairius Rustic Ales - Saison Bernice.....is the best saison I've ever had by a mile. Also, SARA Loves Brett #5 by the same brewery was quite funky and delicious.

Logsdon Farmhouse Ales - Seizoen Bretta is really nice too. I believe that one is fermented with pear juice in the bottle.

Modern Times - School of Certain Victory was outstanding, but I view that one closer to a wild ale. Classified on BA as a Saison so it counts. That one is a "sour saison" made with apricots and aged in white wine barrels.

 

Jolly Pumpkin Bam Biere is a nice, funky Saison... Best I have had yet is Crooked Stave Vieille

 

Tank 7!!!!!!!!!!!

Also Prairie Eliza5beth was awesome.

 

Another vote for HF Arthur as my preferred Saison.
Others I enjoy:
Tank 7 & Saison Brett (Boulevard)
Hennepin (Ommegang)
Crossfade (Oxbow)
Moveable Type (Foundation - another brett saison)
