    Anyone heading to Portland (Oxbow), Boston (Night Shift), Burlington (Foam), or Oxford (Black Hog) for Saison Day? I love that these niche festivals (or celebrations) are becoming a thing. Whether it's saisons or Hop Culture doing their Juicy Brews, it's cool that we can go celebrate a style rather than some hodge podge collection of breweries that we pay $40 to get in to taste beers we can mostly get on shelves.

    Although I live closer to Night Shift, I'm going to trek it up to Portland. Good excuse to get a sitter, grab a couple beers (and a couple to go), some Eventide or Duckfat or Slab, and head home.

    Delighted that Jason teamed up with Foam for a collab. Happy to be spending Saison Day at my local Foam instead of in Portland for a change.

    What a day.

    Walked in, found a spot to hang. We each had three pours to mix and match (four Oxbow, one each from Jester King and Fonta Flora) and then split a Wild Rivulet bottle.

    No lines, no hour long wait time. World class beer, good music, James Bears Award winning food. Try getting that anywhere else in New England.
