Side Project Brewing

Verdant is a vibrant Missouri Wheat Saison that showcases a garden-fresh sensory profile. The inclusion of wheat provides a soft, rustic grain foundation, which is elevated by the cooling, aqueous essence of fresh Cucumbers and a bright lift of Spearmint. Watermelon contributes a delicate, airy sweetness that balances the highly attenuated, bone-dry finish. Expect a complex fermentation profile featuring light peppery phenolics and citrusy esters, which harmonize seamlessly with the herbaceous and fruity additions. This effervescent ale captures the essence of a summer harvest, delivering a crisp, refreshing, and deeply aromatic farmhouse experience driven by native Missouri microflora.

Appearance. Pale gold with a slight haze; features a dense, rocky white head with excellent retention and delicate lacing. Highly effervescent.

Aroma. Moderate to high intensity with a dominant profile of fresh cucumber skin and cool spearmint. Subtle watermelon rind notes merge with citrusy yeast esters and a light peppery phenol. A grainy, bready wheat malt character supports the herbal and fruity aromatics.

Taste. Initial impression is exceptionally crisp and refreshing. Flavors of cool cucumber and light watermelon flesh lead into a spicy yeast character. Low floral hop flavor is present. Moderate bitterness is enhanced by high attenuation, leading to a bone-dry finish with a lingering, clean minty aftertaste and a soft, grainy wheat palate.

Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with very high, prickly carbonation. No alcohol warmth is perceived. Refreshing and crisp on the palate with no astringency.
