Worthy Brewing Farm Out Saison Saison at 7.3% ABV | 25 IBU (C$7.63 at Willow Park Wine & Spirits, 650 ml, no packaging date or best before, acquired 25-Aug-2017, reviewed 29-Aug-2017)
Appearance: hazy straw with one fat finger of fluffy white head diminishing rapidly to a thin skim, no lacing. (3/5) Aroma: floral, banana & bubblegum, coriander, grainy pale malt, peppercorn, grass. (6/10) Taste: moderate sweet, mild bitter, light musty funk. (6/10) Palate: medium slightly slick body, moderate carbonation, sweetish lightly funky finish. (3/5)
Definitely on the heavy side for a Saison, with a sweet and slightly slick feel that I’m attributing to the higher ABV. I dunno, maybe I’ve just had some really good Saisons lately, but tonight I’m just less than impressed by what I was hoping would be a quality lineup – and I’m really hoping the next one I have queued up breaks this trend. This is OK, but certainly less than impressive, and doesn’t even come close to their Coeur de la Pêche. (12/20)
