The Bruery Saison Rue

Cloudy and active pour. Aroma of spice and funk. Flavor begins slightly sweet, with a funky, spicy dryness on the tip of my tongue. Bready, yeasty, spicy, some tartness, a little grassy. Just a lot of wonderful things going on here, very enjoyable.

Dark amber orange pour with thick white head that lasts a long time. Aroma of funk, leather, sour apple. Some spice, belgian yeast. Flavor is spicey, the rye really comes through. Light dryness, some leather and funk. A bit of citrus, dust. This is really good.

750ml bottle. Pours a beautiful pale orange with a massive white head that’s nice and sticky and sticks around forever. Bubbles escalate throughout the entire tall glass. Looks the part. Aroma shows nice classic saison qualities. Belgian yeast throws off some spices, pepper, phenolic, some citrus twang. Some banana maybe and a touch of lemon. A touch of creaminess is also present which adds a nice and unique touch. Flavor is smooth with a creamy, silky mouthfeel. The mouthfeel is really the standout here, feels really lovely without any sweetness. Great body. Certainly one of the better Saisons I’ve had and I bet this would continue tasting good for quite some time as the brett is really not showing itself yet.

Bottle from Blacklick Wine & Spirits. Cloudy orange pour with a big off-white head. Malty and somewhat sweet aroma up front with a nice orange character and a hint of brett. Creamy and bready malt flavor followed by a blast of orange before a creamy and tart finish. Pretty good.

Thanks to the Tampa Crew for this one. Pours hazy yellow-orange with a white head. Nose is some brett, orange, citrus, pepper, lots of carbonation, and spice. Flavor is peppery, tart brett, orange/ citrus, and yeast. Nice saison, dry finish, medium body, and lots of carbonation.

Very floral, with a nice brett character. A bit of tarragon and mint in the nose. The flavor is lightly sweet with cotton candy and honey malts, lightly bitter and just lightly tart in the finish. The rye comes in with a spiciness late, especially once it warms. Body is soft with gentle carbonation. It’s a little sweeter than I’d like it, but a very solid offering and better than I thought it’d be.

An opaque yelllow beer with a tall whie head. Huge pieces of yeast and protein, some of the biggest I have ever seen in a beer, the size of dime. Lots of wheat. Some citrus, and grains of paradise.
