Had from bottle poured into glass.

I had been dying to try this beer when I first heard about it last spring. About two weeks ago I was talking beer with the bartender and he gave me a sample of the Saison, he mentioned t was a collaboration between, dogfish, stone, and victory brewing.(three of y favorite micro brews in the country.

The beer itself looked almost like a lager in color. The thing that stuck out instantly was the smell of grapefruit with a hint of pine needles or something? It tasted great and unlike any other beer I've ever had. I think it makes for a great summer beer and recommend to anyone who has a chance to try it.

A- Light golden body slightly hazed with a bit of yeast particulate. Hge white head and a nice stream of carbonation bubbles.

A- Spiciness, ginger? Yeasty spicy aroma. Lemon funk.

T- Wow. Sage flavor, less ginger than I smelled. Very similar to the aroma. Herbal flavors. Light pale malt flavor. Finishes a bit bitter on the tongue, with a light funk, and pepper.

M- Smooth medium body. Very refreshing carbonation.

D- Not what I expected at all, better! The aroma and flavor are so complex, but incredibly refreshing. I just hope I can hunt down another bottle. This is the first beer to really excite me in a while.
