Some ripe fruit, apricot and earthy and woody notes as well. Light to medium body with a slightly bitter, slightly sweet finish.

Crushed mostly with Honkeybra with Jakebra in the background. A hoppy saison classified as a belgian strong ale? Aight. Pretty cool.

750 mL into Duvel tulips (shared). Pours a clear, deep orange/amber with a three-finger yellowish head that has excellent retention and leaves some fair lacing. Aroma is candi sugar, cherry Twizzlers, strawberry pancake syrup, amaretto. Really just smells like a stale DIPA. Taste is chewy caramel, marzipan, light candied fruits and finishes with spicy white pepper, cloves, and warming alcohol. Tossing the yeast in brings this beer to a deep orange/brown with a seriously long-lasting head. Much of the artificial strawberry character is gone replaced by spicy hops, more white pepper, and some resiny bitterness. Very odd but enjoyable.

750 ml. bottle. Pours a very opaque orange-brown color. Almost the color of apple cider. Huge, rocky white head. Big pear notes, a little booze, yeast, and candy sweetness in the nose. High carbonation but it is very fine. Light, dry mouthfeel. Reminds of a hard cider in many ways. Fruity with a nice touch of bitterness on the palate. I didn’t get the resinous hop quality or the strong citrus notes they suggest on the label. It seems that they have blended together quite nicely. A dry and bitter finish. Different and fun to drink. Definitely worth a try!
