Our Tastes-- Blackberry Farms Summer Saison 2016


I've committed to now broadening my palate brush on saisons, kolschs, wits, wheats and blondes. So as I packed for this trip, BBF Summer Saison 2016 came with me. The picture says it all! While BBQing old school I decided I could imbibe this 750 with my wife (she oddly enough did not care for this saison). Color and head were remarkable. The thick foam this conditioned bottle poured with was amazing, color is as seen with further muddling as I reached the bottom. The subtlety citrus nose was followed by slightly bitter malty notes. Mouth feel was creamy and delightful on a hot humid day at the beach. Australian Summer and Citra hops make this one perfect for the grilled yard bird. 6.3% makes it all day fun.
