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!

Cloudy golden with a massive head and extra long retension... soo long that when i was done there still was a big 2 inch knot of foam on the bottom of the glass. Lightly spiced, tart and herbal, with a bit of hay on the back. The palate is crisp and refreshing.. goes well with salads, a bit acidic at the end and finishes with a dry tart twinge.

Bottle. Hmmm. Interesting brew. Huge white head that spewed from bottle -head interestingly fades to an off-white color. Cloudy honey color. Aroma is strong of green apple, pumpkin. Fairly tart flavor - a young taste that is missing a certain something, possibly a bit flat. A sweet and fruity brew. Ok - not great - not a repeat purchase.

Cloudy Yellow with White Head. Floral, Herbed Malt Aroma. Very Floral on the Palate..Almost Exceedingly So...Overpowering on the Chives? Notes. Nice Saison take, but Intensely Herbed. Dry Herbal Aftertaste.

Cloudy dark amber, with a huge white head; very effervescent. Nose is very funky--seems to be some brett, quite sour, including a bit of sulphur. Flavor is a bit tart, with some green apples. Very dry. Odd stuff; too dry for a saison, not quite sour enough for a lambic...

Cloudy dark yellow in color with large white head. Aroma was sour and fruity. Flavor was well balanced with fruits and hops- very citric, sweet and sour.

12 oz. bottle. Poured a beautiful cloudy orange amber with a puffy white meringue head. Doughy, lemony and sweaty aroma. Slightly tart lemony flavor over musty dough. Some metal notes. Lively carbonation. Initially, the aroma and taste seemed a little too funky, but the beer seemed to mellow out. Even so, a little too doughy and underflavored overall.

Brew pours a slightly tawnied yellow color w/ a huge semi spritzy froth that turns creamy after a bit. Head retention is phenominal finally reducing to a snow covered, 3D geological map of hills and valleys in some far off land. Aroma is that of a floral perfume w/ citrus rind. Light nectar w/ ample residual effers to include a few Champagne streamers. A light yet round maltiness delivers a spiced citrus elixer. Totally dry w/ a mild fruit backbone. A persistant peachpit bittering agent sets in midpalate and carries through to the finish. The finish is parched and dry leaving only a perfume essence to dissmember. This is a great American representation of this Belgian style.
