The Bruery Saison de Lente

Image Hosted by ImageShack.us

4.3/5

AROMA
8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20

750 ml bottle into tulip, 2010 bottle. Pours slightly hazy light amber color with a huge 3 finger white head that seems to last forever that reduces to a lacing cap. Some thick and foamy lacing on the glass, very nice. Aromas of grapes, lemon, honey, grass and spicy yeast. Taste of slightly tart lemon, grapes, honey, spices, and a bit of yeast. There is a bitterness that shows up after the finish that lingers for a bit with spicy flavors. It has a fairly high carbonation with a medium body. Very smooth drink, with no alcohol noted other than a very small warming after the finish. Overall an incredibly enjoyable saison. Delicious.

Probably the best saison I have had yet. Definitely impressed with this and it is my first beer from The Bruery. Fantastic.
