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.

bottle. The aroma is very sweet, giving notes of honey and vanilla. Pours much like its counterpart, Duvel, with a large white head and a deep yellow, almost golden color. The flavour gives a medium sweetness from the vanilla notes, followed by a light bitterness in the finish. On the tounge, Hennepin is medium bodied, with champagne-like crispness, but extremely smooth. Overall, this beer is very tasty, very easy to drink, and at 7.7% ABV, a drinker has the ability to drink more than just one.

Bottle. Pours a hazy yellow, creamy thick head. Sweet malt aroma, bit of citrus. Light flavor for the 7.7%, with subtlety everywhere from the musty hop and yeast that meld together on the back of the soft carbonation.

Served from the bottle at the OTM Tasting Room. The appearance is a lightly hazy straw. The flavors and aromas are more subtle, Belgium yeasts, lemon, some hops, and some melon flavors.

Scouser (177) - Pennsylvania, USA - JUL 30, 2010
Pours hazy yellow colour with a nice white head that lasts. Aroma of spice and yeast. Nice taste of of spice and yeast upfront followed by a nutty msltiness and then banana. Very complex beer, it had to grow on me, but it’s a good drink.

Pours a crystal clear, pale gold with an extreme white head. Bottle overflowed. Nose of light bread, yeast, and warm spice. Medium body, high carbonation, buttery, slight estery alcohol presence, crisp on the finish. Notes of banana, clove, spice, refreshing and summery. Highly drinkable stuff.

750ml Bottle. This is the first time I have tried this one. Pours a mango yellow colour. The head is a thin but solid layer with individual blister like clusters of bubbles seeking escape through the white skin. Aromas of coriander and lighter grains. I would prefer it to be a bit more crisp, but it tastes great! Really starting to love this brewery.
