Commercial Description:
This hoppy, farmhouse style ale has a champagne like effervescence with a crisp but light on the tongue finish. Similar to the Belgian Saison style , this beer serves well as an aperitif. Hennepin has a majestic golden hue. The style is called Grisette or farm house and is considered to be in the domain of the Belgian Saisons.

Sampled from bottle at GOBF. Nice golden pour, witha typical saison style white head. Very spicy and yeasty smell. Very saison in the feel and flavor with citrusy hops and some hay in there. Really like it.

pungent, little skunky (but not in a bad way) nose. Tastes like Belgium - wheat, spiciness, light citrus and just a touch of the funky sour saison barnyard, which really plays well with the carbonation. Best american Saison I’ve tried. Could drink it all day long (and have), despite the rather high ABV.

Tasting at a beerfest [Disclaimer: This was tasted along with many, many other beers during a tasting at Julios. Some of the details are a little hazy]. Good example of this style.

Poured a hazy yellow with a big frothy white head that lasted a long, long time, leaving a lot of noticeable lacing in its’ wake. Fully of taste with citrus, yeast, and spice notes that make you wish the bottle would never end. An excellent beer from an excellent brewery, no wonder this brew is cousin of the Tripel. LC - CP

750ml bottle. Pour is hazy golden with a lasting fizzy white head. Aromas of spice, yeast, and slight hops. Flavor is crisp and light with lots of carbonation, slight funk, and yeast. Decent but nothing great imo.

Bottle. Pours a slightly hazy golden color with a quickly dissipating white head. Aroma of spice, funk, and yeast. Flavor starts sweet and spicy, then progresses into a slightly hoppy bitter finish. I really like this saison. It is very carbonated and refreshing. The slight bitter finish really tops of the spicy flavor.

Bottle. Pours a golden beer with a white head. The aroma is fruity and spices. The aroma has fruits, spices and sweetness. Nice complex palate, and overall a nice beer.

B-Day bottle thanks to a friend. Pours a cloudy orange with a thick and creamy white head. The aroma is spices, yeast, and oranges. The flavor was full of a zesty and dry mix of spices, yeast, orange and lemon peel, a bit of pepper and maybe a touch of apple. A smooth drinkable beer.
