Prince Edward Island Brewing Company Gahan Setting Day Saison – Saison at 3.5% ABV

Prince Edward Island Brewing Company Gahan Setting Day Saison Saison at 3.5% ABV (C$3.41 at NLC Stavanger, 473 ml, bottle date 12-Sep-2016, acquired 1-Nov-2016, reviewed 7-Nov-2016)

Appearance: hazy pale gold with one fat finger of fluffy white head, good retention and spotty lacing. (4/5) Aroma: citrus, coriander, Belgian yeast, bubble gum, candi sugar, light white pepper. (7/10) Taste: moderate sweet, mild bitter, light tart, light pepper. (7/10) Medium-light body, moderate carbonation, dry mildly tart finish. (3/5)

Quite a pleasant saison, adhering reasonably closely to the style: spices aren’t overwhelming, carbonation is moderate but maybe tending just slightly soft, finish is dry and mildly tart, and ABV is low enough for its intended purpose, of quenching thirst. Granted, I was working construction, not in the fields, but close enough! (14/20)

7/10 #ryansbooze ryansbooze.com
