Commercial Description:
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.

Sample tasted at "Spring in the new year with brett" at fordests house. I thought this one was quite a surprise. Enjoyed it.

Tasting, courtesy of Fordest’s event. Beer #11. Copper color with a small white head. Super sweet nose with plenty of mixed berries and some funk. The taste was a bit washed out compared to the aroma. The flavor featured subdued grapes and berries. The mouthfeel was soft and silky. The finish was short with a bit of caramel and some brett. Overall: A good beer--thought it was a saison at the tasting.

Fresh fruit salad bouquet, pears apples and some tropical fruits, some odd little yeasty character floating around in there,taste is very ester prevelant,slightly sweet, at least at first,then that yeastiness washes through and drys things out. Looks nice in the glass. Decent Belgian,thanks Kingpin

Hints of winey-ness in the aroma. Dates and spices follow through, with a lightly acidic, but pleasant flavor. Nice.

My bottle (750ml) shared with HogTownHarry, tupalev & garthicus -- courtesy of gunhaver. Pours a cloudy orange-amber with a spare diminishing white head. Aroma’s sweet with some light funkyness, citrus and a bit of candi sugar. Flavour’s a mix of sweet and sour along with caramel, some fruit and a light bitter finish. Light to medium bodied. Pretty nice!

Bottle shared with Blankboy, Hogtown Harry, and Garthicus, blankboy’s bottle. Very fresh, yeasty, fruity, candy sugar aroma. Neat hazy orange, small white head. Taste is fresh, yeasty, fruity, and sweet. Almost like a kicked up Kool Aid from Belgium. Not too bad really, simple but enjoyable.

Thanks Blankboy! 750 bottle - mild hop-toffee aroma, muddy toffee colour with a small hint of a white head. Sticky toffee flavour with a somewhat caramel finish. Not bad at all

Bottle (750ml - green, corked & caged). Shared with blankboy, garthicus and tupalev, blankboy’s bottle. Cloudy orange, small white head. Dry, old-wood aroma, dusty, musty and mildly funky, orange and lemon zest. Dry, spicy, orange zest and ultimately really sweet. Sticky, light body, light astringency and a bitter spicy finish. I liked it, didn’t love it.
