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!

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.

Very light yellow pour. Nice lacing. Fruity nose. Somewhat sweet. Overcarbonated. A touch malty. Not bad at all. Very frothy clingy head.

Highly enjoyable Saison, still my favorite "summer" type "seasonal" beer. Jolly Pumpkin does well to make this very drinkable yet sensational enough to warrant its price tag. Bitter and smooth.

As i cracked the top it started over flowing. its alive thank god i had my glass in hand. pours a cloudy yellow with a thick creamy tight one inch head I think this is my first saison though i do have one in the cellar from dark lord day 2008. aromas of friut and hops taste is of hops.spicy malts and some citrus flavors and other fruit esters. thin and lively with a mild sweet bitterness from the finishing hops a great summer beer
