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.Fruity, sharp and light yeasty aroma. Golden color with a large white head. Sweet fruity body with light spices. Sweet palate that develops a nice hop note with a hint of alcohol. Not bad

Thanks to my step Dad for the sampler pack. Pours a cloudy straw color and a fluffy white head. Yeasty fruity aroma. Fruity spicy thin refreshing taste with a little hint of funk. Leaves a slight bitter funky aftertaste. Nice and light, good beer.

Let me start by saying In it’s defense I’m not a huge fan of Saisons. I just felt like this beer was trying to be too complex for it’s own good. Alot of different flavours aromas and sort of overly acidic. Yeastyness was good. I would have enjoyed it more if it had showcased a few flavors more instead of muddling alot of herbal ones. On a positive great head and carbonation, very well conditioned.

Pours a very light, yellow, straw in color. A nice inch of head forms on the pour. Smell is a bit funky, and spicy. Taste is more of the funk. Very good amount of carbonation. Mouthfeel is medium, bubbly and funky. Good beer but not overly complex.

I really enjoyed the faint lemon aroma as I poured this beer. It gave rise to a fluffy white head and coriander scent. Faint acidity on the first taste, but so quenching! A summer ale, but well rounded with dehydrated pineapple flavour. Anyone who doesn’t love this beer for what it is, needs their head seeing to. Lovely stuff.

Cloudy golden color with white head, leaving a good lacing. Smell is yeasty, with different spices, some lemon and clove, has a flowery smell too. Clove and bread beginning, with some sourness and spices coming through. Average carbonation paired with a light and dry body. Pretty good, would try it again.
