Lectio Divina is a cross between an abbey double and a saison. Open fermentation with a saison strain and a dose of wild yeast at bottling add to the complexity.

Cask at Redlight. Amber pour with a thick white head. Sweet malty aroma with hint of tart berrys. Taste is thick and malty with dry tart berrys. Clean dry tart finish. A little too sweet on cask.

Bottle thanks to Bu11zeye. Poured a hazy amber with white head with good retention. Aroma was full of citris , very nice. Flavor was citris, like a ginger ale, sweet malt, and alcohol spice. Medium carbonation with medium mouth feel. Pretty good beer.....

750ml bottle via Mys Swap 3.0. Pours a cloudy amber with a small head. Nose is fusel alc, banana and sweet malts. Tastes just like it smells. This must be a belgian yeast..is unique..but has the classic belgian profile. Also some spiciness..ginger, cardimom. Body is full. Carbonation is medium.

Bottle shared at tasting. Pours cloudy and a dark caramel color with a big lasting creamy beige head. Smell is mild and dusty malt. Too mild in fact. Taste is similarly tame, and slightly sweet with not much going on flavorwise. Hints of dusty sweet spice which become almost a touch cloying in the end. Not something I’d be crazy about having again.

Bottle courtesy of Degarth. 1st batch. Thanks! Looks like unfiltered apple cider in the glass. Medium sized frothy head that diminishes quickly. Funky, caramelly, butterscotchy, fruity aroma. Taste is strong caramel with prunes, spice. Thick texture, nicely carbonated.

Bottle: Poured a pale clear orangey color ale with a big foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of nice medium sweet caramel malt with some light funky notes also discernable. Taste is a mix between some nice caramel medium sweet malt with some subtle funky notes. Nice creamy body with good carbonation and no apparent alcohol but lacking spices and character to makes this truly interesting. I am glad I got the chance to try this and looking forward to try their other offerings.

750 ml bottle thanks to Ibrew2or3. The aromas off this amber colored ale were tart and fruity with some caramel. Flavor was not super sweet. Dark fruits and molasses were in there with some flavors that were almost barley wine-ish. Pretty good.
