Your Top 10 Saisons

From my reviews/hads:
HF Art
Boulevard Saison Brett
HF Ann
Allagash Interlude
HF Flora
Upright Four Play
McKenzie Saison Vautour
Victory Helios
Upright Flora Rustica
JP Baudelaire

I definitely suffer from inconsistency in my reviews/hads. Mostly that my hads are inflated over my reviews, particularly on the high end of the my reviewing. A couple of those beers probably do not deserve to be there.

 

Hill Farmstead Vera Mae
Lavery Liopard Oir
Sofie
Sour Guava Grove
HF Anna
Boulevard Tank 7
Lost Abbey Carnevale
Bam Beire
Saison de Lente
Stillwater A Saison Darkly

I have not had any from Hill Farmstead other than Arthur, Boulevard Saison-Brett, anything from Logsdon, McKenzie, Crooked Stave, Funkwerks or Upright.

Most American "saisons" I have had I either consider to be not very good, not to style or both.

 

Might need to update my list. Having BFM Square Root 225th Anniversay Historical Saison at a bar in Virginia now and it is absolutely fantastic. It's a blonde saison aged in Bon Chien barrels.

 

Anchorage's Love Buzz is one of my favorite beers, but I have to give a shout out to:

Surly CynicAle
Boulevard Saison - Brett
Ommegang Hennepin
Boulevard Tank 7
Jester King Noble King
Anything by Fantome
and Pretty Things Jack D'Or (love the "swirl the bottle before drinking" suggestion on the label, tasted great)

Even when a saison isn't that good, I'm still happy because I'm drinking a saison. Just like having sex with fat chicks.

 

Have to edit myself again as my spreadsheet wasn't updated for this. Tired Hands HandFarm would be #2 on my list.

 

I don't have 10 but these:

Ommegang Hennepin
Fantome (holy ghost!)
Bruery Saison Rue (so amazing with the rye. best US saison)
Surly Cynic
Saison Dupont
Boulevard Saison Brett
Boulevard Tank 7
Brooklyn Sorachi Ace

 

I second the Love Buzz, Logsdon's Seizon Bretta, and the Commons makes some fantastic saisons. I have a Boulevard Saison-Brett in my cellar from a trade, May have to break that one out!

 

HF Anna
Dupont
Saison Brett
Fantome Hiver
Pretty Things Jack D'or

 

Sad to see a lack of funkwerks love. Tropc king and saison are amazing beers.

 

Agree and agree! Funkwerks is awesome.
