Commercial Description:
This hoppy, farmhouse style ale has a champagne like effervescence with a crisp but light on the tongue finish. Similar to the Belgian Saison style , this beer serves well as an aperitif. Hennepin has a majestic golden hue. The style is called Grisette or farm house and is considered to be in the domain of the Belgian Saisons.

Bottle. Aroma of wheat, grass, hay, earth, mustiness. Flavor of playful bittering hops, mildly grainy wheat, some mustiness/funk. Notes of citrus, citrus peel, and other spices often present in this brew were buried in the background (old bottle?), but the result was still stellar. A beautifully constructed classic.

Bottle. Pours a cloudy light orange with a huge foamy head. Aroma of some skunk, funk, and sweet flowers. Flavor of nice sweet wheaty malt, yeasty funk, and light spices. Light and dry. I love light saisons and this was no exception. A refreshing beer.

Very light honey-golden color with a nice thick white head. Aroma is lemon and pine. Just a hint of ginger. Flavor is almost overpowered by carbonation. Very fruity. Orange, lemon and apricot. A bit of nutmeg. Fizzy, medium bodied mouthfeel. Quite good all around.

Aroma is sweet apple, citrus hops, light yeast, and spiceness. Pours with a large, white head with a very lightly hazed yellow body. Taste is sweet, buttery and fruity. Watery texture with lively carbonation.

Thanks to my step Dad for the sampler pack. Pours a cloudy straw color and a fluffy white head. Yeasty fruity aroma. Fruity spicy thin refreshing taste with a little hint of funk. Leaves a slight bitter funky aftertaste. Nice and light, good beer.
