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.

This is my second beer from this brewery (both picked up at Pat’s Liquors in Porter, IN), and I’m being impressed. This one pours a slightly hazed chestnut body with a towering, firm ecru head. It has a fruity, sweet caramelish nose, some flowers held in the distance, and a touch of soapy yeast. Dangerously smooth to drink, light and nigh unto fluffy in the mouth, it tastes of toffee, orchard fruit, mild brown spices, thin molasses, and dark sugars with a moderate flamora. Nice enjoyable drink.

A really fantastic brew courtes of John: From the bottle, it poured a cloudy reddish-orange colour with a big frothy of white head. Well carbonated, the crisp acidity played a little dance on my tongue (reminded me of Bell’s Sparkling Ale). Bright fruity notes on the nose- apple and pear. With a hint of brown sugar on the palate."

Cloudy brown/orange, with a nice tan head. Aroma of apple, citrus, caramel. Flavor is pretty similar, with some more pronounced brown sugar notes. Pretty easy drinking, but not terribly complex. Nice mouthfeel. Good brew.

750ml. served into Duvel tulip. Pour is clody light brown with lacy off white head. Aromas of sweet malts, fruits, citrus, oak, and some caramel. Flavor is sweet fruits, citrus, slight sour, and burnt sugar. Interesting and very drinkable.

Bottle acquired via the generosity of Sparky27. Eric is the most generous guy on the site...THANKS!!! Copper penny pour with a bit of rusty nail around the edges and a frothy ivory head. Aroma exhibits a nice grassiness, along with raisin, brown sugar, and spice. Flavor is definitely belgian-inspired with yeasty, biscuity qualities, spice, and even a brett-like sourness. Medium mouthfeel and unique. Liked this one alot!!!

"A beautiful beer," said the guy at Beer Table before he gladly took my $25 (ouch!) for the 750ml bottle. Copper color with lasting beige head. Aroma is brown sugar, dark fruits, spices, and earth. Good dark malts and yeast, some fruitiness and slight sour notes. Great full mouthfeel.
