Commercial Description:
Memoriale is a buckwheat saison made in the Belgian Farmhouse tradition. This straw colored ale offers subtle fruit notes entangled in earthy hop flavors providing a complex, yet refreshing finish on the palate. Our Memoriale has been created to support research for ALS, or what is more commonly known as "Lou Gehrig’s Disease". Proceeds from each Memoriale purchased will be donated to the ALS Therapy Development Institute.

Draft at the brewpub. Poured a murky, nearly opaque medium orange color. The head was thin and white. Smelled of unripe banana, pale malt, and a splash of lemon. Medium bodied and dry with carbonation on the higher end of the scale. Very earthy and grainy flavors. I tasted dried leaves mixed with lemony dish soap, bark, and a bit of unripe banana. There was an odd grainy flavor and a hint of malt extractiness. Moderate bitterness lingered after the finish.

Pours a pretty hazy yellow color with a small head and good lace. The aroma has some hay and a light barnyard character with some stinky cheese and light fruity notes. The flavor is surprisingly dry and has some light citrus notes there is a playful funky flavor with a light tartness with some mineral oddness.
