Commercial Description:
This delicious farmhouse ale is named for our Jack Russell, who struck by a car, bounced back in fine tenacious Jack Russell fashion, and is brewed for those of us who knocked down, have picked up, dusted off and carried on undaunted. Golden, naturally cloudy, bottle conditioned and dry hopped for a perfectly refreshing balance of spicy malts, hops and yeast. Please enjoy our beers in good health, And look both ways when crossing the street!

12 oz bottle from premier gourmet. pours hazy golden with off white head. aromas are zesty sour funk with some peppery notes. the flavours are similar with the addition of some light hopping. very nice but the pepper lingers in your thoat a bit which prevent this from getting a 5 in palatability. very nice session saison.

Pours cloudy yellow with a heavy white head. Nose is yeasty and peppery. The flavor is funky yeast and horseblanket flavors, spicy yeast, and floral hops. Rather watery mouthfeel. Pretty good.

Awesome pour- cloudy orange with a huge puff of head, almost like a scoop of ice cream on top. Aroma is cidery with some attic/closet smell. Flavor is tart, apple cider, yeast. Finishes tart and a little spicy.

750ml bottle, Batch 264. Wonderfully spicy, yeasty nose, malty and fruity with notes of lemongrass, pepper, pale malt grains, dough, clove and plenty of farmhouse funk. Cloudy medium golden in color with a lasting, thick cap of white foam. Flavor is mildly bitter and citric to start, turning maltier and fruity before a gently tart, spicy, refreshing and lightly herbal finish. Sharp and active on the palate, dry and slightly acidic throughout with a light-medium body. A wide variety of subtle nuances seem to appear over a period of time, revealing a complex and tasty but very easy-going rendition of the style.

Thanks to July Santa for this beer. Soft straw color with a big foamy head. Spice, hops, melon, banana....great nose. Flavor is a bit of Jolly funk with a sweet malt flavor mixed with spices and citrus. Thanks Santa.

If I had to compare it to wine, it’d come close to gerwurztraminer. Aromas of banana, crisp hops, sour yeast. This sucker is foamy for sure, nice soapy 3 finger head and strong lace ring, swirling just foams it back up. Notes of light fruits; pear, melons, hops and a tight, bubbly, soury tart and buttery, but light finish... this would be a decent substitute for a white wine like chardonnay or that gewurztraminer.

Pours a cloudy straw color. Some white head but the bubbles are quite big. Flavor is slightly sour and a nice hop presence. Really interesting. I like this alot.

Did not take notes but an excellent, somewhat funky, hoppy, refreshing saison.
