Boulevard Saison

Chamomile and spices on the nose with slight funk, very nice. Pours cloudy blonde with a thick white head. Chamomile comes out right away with light fruit notes and spices, citrus notes with earthy hops. Solid saison!

Bottle thanks to Soonah. Lightly hazy, orange yellow with an even white finger of foam. Aroma is musty, spicy, fruit, apples, pears. Taste is floral, fruity, spicy, some alcohol or just strong thinning spiciness. This is nice, but I definitely prefer the Tank 7.

( 750ml bottle) pours very pale yellow, great meringue-like head that lasts and nice coating of the glass. Nose of earth, spicy yeast, citrus hops, lemon zest. Taste of earth, lemon zest, and some sweet malts. Finishes creamy, crisp, earthy with more citrus. Very refreshing.

Bottle: Pours a nice hazy orange with a fizzy white head. The nose is bright and citrusy with lots of earthy peppery notes and yeast esters flying about. Wheat and yeast, spice and herbs in the flavor. A nice bold body and prominent mouthfeel are more than the usual carbonation-forward belgian varieties, which is nice. Tart finish with more pepper herbs and yeast esters. Very nice saison for a bold american attempt. Perhaps a little too heavy on the citrus hops, but that’s about it.

750ml bottle: This one pours a cloudy, straw yellow color. It has a large frothy head on it and leaves a good amount of lacing. Nice aroma. Grassy, floral, yeasty, some lighter fruits. The taste is pretty decent also. Definitely a dry taste to it. Grassy, yeast, malts, some lighter fruits. A nice brew.

750 ml. A marz atmosphere yellow orange cloudy atmosphere. Lacy. Aroma has notes of apple, earthy, sawdust wood, Citrusy, caramel, alcohol, and yeast. Tingling finish lingers light bitter and finishes very dry. Flavor starts spicy, soft, sweet, and ends bitter and with light biting. Dry and only dry

Fairly clear golden color with a booming white head. The aroma is funk, floral and fresh fruits, I’m thinking pear, apple and banana. Light-bodied, crisp and very refreshing. The flavors are barnyard funk and fruity, mostly the same noted in the aroma with perhaps the addition of peaches. I pick up some clove as well. A light acidic spice mixes in nicely bringing the flavors together. This isn’t overly complex but just flat out tasty and drinkable with no real flaw and I’m fine with that. A damn fine drink really.

Bottle. Pours a light gold with a thick white head. Aroma is full of yeast with fruity citrus notes and some floral notes. Flavor starts with grapefruit notes and becomes yeasty with slight floral notes. Nice and light on the tongue.
