European Saisons are a perfect summer and harvest time specialty style. Characteristics of Saisons are a full orange color; powerful carbonation; a creamy soft texture with a very fruity, citric sourness and often spicy notes. Saisons are light and easy drinking, and are often lower in alcohol, making for a great session style ale.
