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.

Bottled at Järnet, Stockholm. Hazy golden, fluffy head. Orangey nose. Dry, lively and unexpectedly hoppy. Fresh and minerally with evident yeast character. Long resiy bitter finish. An excellent, elegant beer I would never have guessed being brewed outside Belgium.

750 ml bottle. Pours a slightly hazy gold with a massive creamy white head that continues to rise long after it is poured. Thick, dense lacing on the glass. Lots of tiny carbonation bubbles. Pleasant aroma of citrus, yeast and a bit of spice. The flavor is a little bit of citrus with some light spice and yeast with lingering light bitterness at the finish. Enjoyable.

Pours a beauiful golden color with a big creamy white head. Spicy aroma of coriander and citrus. Carbonationup front that is not too overpowering. Spicy with ntes of citrus balanced out by a hint of slight malt. The amount of spice perfectly balances out the sweet/sour flavor and reults in a crisp dry finish. Very good.

12 oz. Bottle - Memphis. Poured a bold gold with some cloudyness due to the yeast. I would not characterize this as a hoppy beer but it sure was spicy. The high carbonation popping on the tongue brought out some pepper.

Bottle. Pours golden with a huge white head, which quickly calms down to about 1 cm. Fairly carbonated, but not overly so. Sweet with a strong malty backbone. Good spice kick. A nice domestic saison.

9/07 - 750 ml courtesy of ’Naka. Cloudy gold. Nice foamy white head. Spicy nose, lots of coriander and spice. Same with the taste, spicy, and malty. Good stuff.
