This Belgian-style Saison offers a vibrant and rustic profile, leaning into farmhouse tradition with a bright, citrus-forward twist. The addition of limes during the mash infuses a zesty, integrated acidity that complements the characteristic fruity esters and peppery phenols of the fermentation. Expect a crisp, refreshing experience where the citrus notes dance alongside a light, grainy malt backbone. This highly effervescent ale culminates in a long, refreshingly tart finish, balancing traditional Belgian spice with a sharp, lime-driven crispness that underscores its refreshing character. It is an exemplary modern interpretation of the style, focusing on high attenuation and bright aromatics.
Appearance.Pale gold to light orange (6–8 SRM) with a voluminous, dense, rocky white head that exhibits excellent retention and thick Belgian lacing. Unfiltered with a distinct, persistent haze.
Aroma.High intensity with a dominant lime zest and citrus oil character. Yeast-derived spicy phenols suggest cracked black pepper, while fruity esters contribute notes of lemon peel and green apple. Malt is low and grainy, and hops offer a faint, earthy, floral backdrop.
Taste.Initial impression of bright citrus followed by a soft, grainy malt center. The lime addition provides a pleasant tartness that harmonizes with peppery yeast spice. Hop bitterness is moderate but feels firm due to very high attenuation. The finish is remarkably dry and clean, leaving a lingering, fresh-sour citrus aftertaste.
Mouthfeel.Medium-light body with very high, effervescent carbonation that produces a prickly sensation on the palate. Subtle, well-integrated alcohol warmth is present. Crisp and drying with a light, refreshing acidity.
