St Feuillien Limited Edition No 1
This unfiltered blond ale elegantly bridges the gap between a refreshing Witbier and a rustic Saison. The influence of the Blanche style introduces a lively citrus brightness and a whisper of coriander, complemented by a delicate, refreshing acidity. The hop profile is exceptionally complex, marrying the floral and earthy elegance of Aramis and Saaz with the vibrant, grapefruit-forward character of Cascade and Amarillo. A meticulous dry-hopping process elevates the aromatic intensity. Thanks to a diverse grain bill, the palate is well-rounded and smooth, yet remains effervescent and highly attenuated, finishing with a moderate, lingering bitterness characteristic of a classic farmhouse ale.
Appearance. Pale gold (5-6 SRM) with a hazy, unfiltered appearance. Features a long-lasting, dense, rocky white head with excellent Belgian lace and high effervescence.
Aroma. High intensity featuring a complex blend of citrusy hops, cracked coriander, and spicy yeast. Prominent grapefruit and lemon notes from dry-hopping meet earthy and floral hop character. Low grainy malt sweetness is present, alongside moderate fruity esters of orange and pear and a light peppery phenol.
Taste. Initial impression is crisp and refreshing with a soft, grainy malt palate. Hop flavors of citrus peel, spice, and wildflower are moderate, supported by a moderate bitterness that never becomes harsh. Fermentation character provides black pepper and a light, lactic-leaning tartness. Finishes very dry and clean with a lingering spicy and hoppy aftertaste.
Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with a slightly creamy texture from the mixed cereal grains. High carbonation creates a lively, prickly effervescence. Low alcohol warmth is well-integrated; no astringency is present.
