Richmond 20th. Medium light amber, slight head, some decent head. Belgian spice aroma and some grain. Flavor is a dead on match. Definitely in the saison strain of things. I did the QR link thing. Not totally sold on the trippy nature of the song versus the rather old school Belgian nature of the brew. But liked the beer in the end.
