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.

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.

Clear copper with tan head. Nice toasted caramel, yeasty spicy aroma. Light frothy mouthfeel. Decent flavors of caramel apple with ripe pear and spicy yeast. Nice alcohol twang to finish. Not too bad.

Pours brown, beige head. Aroma is yeasty, giving it some spicy notes. Taste is sugary (blend of cane and crystal sugar), malty and spicy. The sugar process is all over as is the yeast. Nice and smooth, easy to sip on. A very fine beer.

750 ml bottle. Pours a cloudy dark amber with a moderate off-white head that faded to a ring after mid-glass and left partial lace all the way to the end. Pleasant aroma of Belgian yeast and malt. The flavor is again Belgian yeast and malt with some mild sweetness as well. Enjoyable.

Orange to amber in color with a decent white head. Sweet, spices, oranges, ginger are in the smell. Medium body. Taste is fruity.

Bottle from New Beer in Manhattan. Nice amber pour with a light tan head that won’t quit- great retention, with moderate to heavy active carbonation. Got a good amount of citrus peel in the aroma with some light belgian yeast character- the aroma could have been a bit stronger. Citrus and molasses in the taste up front, with some toasted/crystal malt and mild brown sugar, Some light gtainy astringency, but not too bad. Finishes with a light bitterness and touches of spice.

Tasting – Perfect Pour. Dark amber, thin creamy head. Sweet raisin and brown sugared cherry aromas ride soft grassy-like undercurrents. Caramelized dried dark fruit tones gain a touch of herbal grassy hop flavor late. Medium bodied with soft carbonation. A touch too sweet for me…
