Black Oak Summer Saison

Brewed by Black Oak Brewing
Style: Saison
Etobicoke, Canada

Partly cloudy golden body with a small white head. Perfumy aroma. Perfume makes it way to the taste too. Very perfumy indeed. Very floral too. An overall impression of drinking flowers juice. Feels like uncontrolled dry-hopping. Bready malts (white-bread dough) and faint orange skin flavour. Drinkable as a thirst quencher but as this attempt at a Belgian Saison as convincing as a Chuck Norris dramatic scene.

draft at bow and arrow. opaque orange with thin white head, it has yeasty aroma with a hint of orange. the flavor is typical of saison (vide orval), but it is quite sweet and has a stronger aftertaste of orange peel.

Fruity and spicy, coriander, light, amber. Funky taste. Pretty poor for a saison.

Cloudy gold/orange. Aroma is spices, yeast, and citrus. Flavor is spices, citrus, and some honey. Body is on the light side. A bit more alcohol would help this. Thanks to HogTownHarry for this bottle.

Pours a light orange color with a white head. Aroma is of corriander, spices, and citus. Flavor is corriander, spices and bitter orange peel.

[081-20061031] 341mL. Hoppy wheat and orange aroma. Cloudy, light brown-amber body with lots of bubbles throughout. Tastes like wheaty leaves, and something that must be coriander. Light-medium body, complex, astringent mouthfeel that’s not unpleasant. Reminiscent of Denison’s with an orange kick.
