Saison 7 º 30 IBU

Bird Brewery

Aalscholver by Bird Brewery is a classic Saison that showcases the expressive power of its specific yeast strain. This golden-orange ale bursts with a vibrant interplay of spicy black pepper phenols and bright citrus esters, characteristic of its high-attenuation fermentation. At 7% ABV, it leans into the stronger side of the style, offering a subtle warmth and a rustic, grainy malt backbone. The profile is defined by a firm bitterness and an exceptionally dry finish, leaving a crisp, lingering impression of earthy, floral Continental hops. It is a quintessential farmhouse-style ale where fermentation character takes center stage.

Appearance. Deep gold to pale orange (SRM 6-10); dense, rocky white head with excellent retention and Belgian lacing; effervescent with slight haze from being unfiltered.

Aroma. High intensity of fruity-spicy yeast character; prominent black pepper phenols and citrusy (lemon, orange) esters; low earthy and floral hop notes; light, grainy, rustic malt background.

Taste. Initial dry, grainy malt flavor followed immediately by a wave of peppery spice and citrus zest; moderate hop bitterness that feels amplified by the high attenuation; very dry, crisp finish with a lingering bitter and spicy aftertaste.

Mouthfeel. Medium-light body; very high carbonation providing a prickly, effervescent sensation; light alcohol warmth; no astringency.
