The Bruery Saison Rue

Brewed by The Bruery
Style: Saison
Placentia, California USA

750 ml bottle poured a clear golden amber with a lasting creamy white head. Aromas of rye, straw, light carmel, light fruittiness and light spice. Palate was light bodied and crisp with a dry finish. Flavors of rye, straw, apple and spice with a crisp dry spiced finish.

Pours a nice amber with a large cream colored head. Aroma sweet malts, spicy rye, funky brett, brown sugar and earth. Flavor is a great mix of spice, funk, tartness, apples, some grapes and earthy hops. I love this beer!

Very fantastic and beautiful saison. Good crispness to balance out the traditional syrup that comes in "farmhouse" beers. This is a summer drinker despite its color. Highly recommended. Nice town name too... Placentia? Really?

it pours hazy... a brassy coppery color with a monster cooked cream shade of off white tinted head. soapy clingy lace is present. the aroma is definitely bretty... add that to flowers, earthy yeast, cinnamon, herbaceous-ness, orange, caramel, cardamom, a light tart sensation and a bit of washed rind cheesy funk. the palate is just a touch too sweet (give it a year and this will prolly be rockin’) though it is fairly bitter on the finish and prickly throughout. flavors of pale malt sweetness, freshly squeezed orange juice, cardamom, cinnamon, minerals, lemon and light earthy seeds with a slightly numbing quality coming from the rye. medium bodied, prickly, dry and possibly over carbonated. 8/4/7/3/16/3.8

Bottle, poured a hazy golden color with a tall fizzy white head. Nose is spicy with malty, yeasty notes. Medium bodied with very lively carbonation. Very ginger ale like flavor with spicy notes of coriander and a mild brett presence. Finishes dry and slightly bitter.

Musty brett fumes come from this hazed dark orange fluid, with a touch of cheesiness and finish like fluffy lemon cake. The head was nice and fluffy. Flavors were bretty and clean with touches of wheat and/or straw. Not much different than most of the brett fermented ales on the market these days, but nothing wrong with that.

what to say ... this is just another insanely good beer. Pours cloudy golden, white head. aroma had a distinct rye nose with nice sweet fruits reminding me of peach and hints of lemon. taste, very lemony, lots of rye, tastes very fresh with the brettanomyces adding a nice finish. Dry palate with some notes of fruits; peach like. Light bitter hops in the finish, with rye.
