Commercial Description:
A very special brew for our fifth anniversary. Brewed with a blend of rye and pale malts, spicy American hops, and a classic farmhouse yeast, for a tart, peppery body and an amazing dry finish. Here’s to five years of Yazoo!

Draft at brewery. Pours hazy amber with a retentive off white head. Aroma of yeast and funky esters. Flavor of Rye, lemon, and spice. Slight phenolic finish. Interesting concept, but this is not working for me. Perhaps I need to revisit.

Bottled. Poured medium gold, cloudy, foamy off-white head. Nose is yeasty, horse-blanket, citrus. Flavor is tart, lemony, spicy. Hoppy, dry finish. Refreshing.

5th anniversary bottle. Cloudy orange with fair white head. Orange citrus aroma with hints of white pepper spice. Flavor is orange peel, a twinge of sourness, and a little hop spice. Medium thin body with moderately high carbonation. Refreshing change of pace, but not really a winter beer.

12 oz bottle from Frugal MacDoogal’s. Poured a slightly hazy gold color with a three finger white head that disappeared quickly. Aroma was similar to what I expected from a saison with a fruity/funky note, with spices (cloves) present too. Flavor was spicy and interesting. The rye added a peppery taste. Fruit was also present on the tongue. I was impressed with this brew. Linus and the gang keep churning out the good, inventive and different brews.

Bottle at Woodys. Golden color, slightly cloudy, white head. Lemongrass nose with some spice on it. Bit of lemongrass in flavor with forward white pepper in the middle and a hint of banana on the finish.

Draft at tap room. Cloudy dark pale in the glass with an off-white head that left light lace. Fruit aroma with lots of spice backing...clove mostly picked out. It continues with a fruity flavor mixed with some rye and a pepper background. Slightly metallic in flavor. Medium body that starts sweet but got a little tart.
