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.

750ml bottle. Pours a pale yellow with a huge frothy head. Aroma is mild spice, fruits & grains. Very bubbly on the tongue. Thin & dry. Taste was light fruits, apples, pears, with a grainy background. Pretty good.

On tap at the Neighborhood. Hazy yellow with a nice, white fluffy head. Big sweet aroma, of fruit - mainly bananas - cloves, other spices, wheat, and hops. Big taste, of hops, fruit, spices - a bit sharp. Lingering sharp spiciness. Very tasty.

Pours to golden body with THICK white head that lingers for several minutes. Not a great beer but definitely worth your money.

750ml bottle (Pikkulintu, Helsinki) shared by JK54B - thanks!
Hazy pale orange, small persistent tight head. Sharp sour fruity aroma - citrus. Soft palate, pleasant carbonation. Tangy hops, but a little cardboardy. Sharp citrus too, and apple, but also some alcohol. Passable saison, but not great.
