Microbrasserie Le Castor Farmhouse Cerise – Saison at 6.5% ABV

Microbrasserie Le Castor Farmhouse Cerise Saison at 6.5% ABV (C$10.19 at Oak & Vine, 500 ml, packaged on 16-Oct-2016, acquired 26-Apr-2017, reviewed 7-Sep-2017)

Appearance: slightly hazy red-tinged medium amber with one finger of loose off-white head diminishing rapidly to a thin ring, no lacing. (3/5) Aroma: sour cherry, light funk, caramel. (7/10) Taste: moderate sweet, low bitter, moderate funky tart. (7/10) Palate: medium-light body, moderate carbonation, off-dry mild tart and funky finish. (3/5)

Nowhere near as impressive as their Colorado Farmhouse. Cherries dominate, but come across as slightly bruised or past their best-by, instead of brightly tart like I prefer. OK, but nothing special. (13/20)

6.5/10 #ryansbooze ryansbooze.com
