Saison Imperiale

Pours brown into a snifter. Fluffy beige micro head with good retention recedes to skim surface. Pit fruit and pepper aromas. Crisp and well balanced. Fruity upfront with a dry hops and sour brett finish. Quite nice.

Dark amber pour with a rocky white head and drippy lace. Fruity aroma almost spoiled fruit . Sour up fruit with a tease of leather. This is a very underrated beer

750, corked and baled. Pours a grainy and opaque dark brown with a towering, sudsy, surging off-white head. Enormous brown apple, green apple, brown sugar, and sweet brown bread nose. Creamy medium body with prickly carb. All the sweet fruity and bready notes come back from the nose. This is a nice beer, brewed creatively and well, that just doesn’t add up to much in the way of refreshment or captivation of the interest.

bottle. chestnut pour with frothy off white head that lasts for ever. lacing. light aroma of apple, spice and funk. slightly sour. fruit is prominant. barnyard funk. well balanced. nice.

Deep red gernet body with a light white peach flesh colored head. The aroma is lightly spicy with some cinnamon and apples. There was also some funky leather goodness. The taste is leathery with a sugary sweet cola finish. There is also some black cherry and hints of clove in the finish. Interesting and sweet, this tastes like a sweeter fruit beer. I woudl like this one more if it was a little more dry.

Pours orange/amber, with an off white head. Aroma is fruit, spices, and yeast. Flavor is fruit, spices, yeast, and some alcohol.

Why the bad ratings? I don’t get it. Aroma is bretts, sour grapes and sour pears. Very light bitter aftertaste after the flavor subsides. Pours amber with white head.

Appearance: Pours a clear, amber body with a small, fizzy, white head. Smell: Aroma of soured, forgotten fruits with a real stink of Brett apparent. Light notes of pepper and other various spices. Taste: Crudely sweet bready maltiness. Taste of tart, stale fruits seasoned with spice. Rather unclean Brett component. A few drops of castor oil. Exceptionally mild bitterness. Touch of acidity. Flourish of peppery alcohol near the continually unclean finish. Pass the water, will ya? Mouthfeel: Medium-bodied. Medium carbonation. Slight oiliness to the mouthfeel. Drinkability: No thanks! Not a big fan of the heavier, under-attenuated, imperialized saisons. Where’s a bottle of DuPont when I need one?
