Nov 22, 2009 Tap at brewpub, twice. Very good saison with a bready maltiness and a grassy/citrusy quite intense hopping. I’m not sure about the effects of buckwheat instead (or mixed?) with rye but this has a lot of punch. They even could, after marketingly renaming it, bottle this beer for widespread distribution, then give me all the money so I could still drink beer all day but without working.

Nov 2, 2009 In short: A buckwheat Saison. Floral, semi-dry, semi-wild, semi-fruity. Sticks to the basics. Good session beer.
How: Tap at brewpub
The look: Cloudy blonde body topped by a very small white head
In long: Nose is pleasantly barnyard, wild flowers, buckwheat. Taste is nothing special but will please any Saison lover. The beer is well attenuated and feels semi-dry. Nice moderate wild yeast presence, the beer is not super wild/funky but it is wild enough to be unquestionably a Saison. Fruity notes of pineapples. Very floral and moderately grassy. Buckwheat apparent. Nothing exceptional here but you’ll never hear me complain when I drink a Saison, because if I try to I go “blurbblurbblurb” and I spill beer in between sips maybe, but never when I drink it.
