Peak Organic Releases 2015 Citrus Saison

Portland, Maine (June 30th, 2015) - Peak Organic Brewing’s Citrus Saison stretches the bounds of the Saison style in the most refreshing of ways. As a follow up to their Ginger Saison release, the Citrus Saison puts a twist on a light Belgian farmhouse ale by blending in organic lemon and lime, creating a beer that has a truly unique balance of citrus and spice characteristics.

The Citrus Saison showcases organic wheat from Oechsner Farm in Newfield, New York, as well as a unique splash of citrus, reminiscent of a summer shandy. The complexity added by the yeast captures a dry, earthiness within the light, citrusy body. As summer comes into full swing, the Citrus Saison will no doubt be quenching the thirst of Peak fans around the country.

“We’ve been experimenting with this Saison yeast strain in a number of beers and have been super thrilled with just how expressive it’s flavor profile is, particularly in this beer,” explained Peak founder/brewer Jon Cadoux. “I get a tremendous blend of bright citrus notes, followed by a combination of bubblegum and clove on the finish. I think we hit the citrus blend on the nose this year to really give the beer fantastic balance.”

The Peak Citrus Saison is available through the remainder of the summer in both draft and six-pack bottles.
