Appearance: opaque pale straw with one fat finger of rocky white head, excellent retention and heavy soapy lacing. (4/5) Aroma: coriander, bright citrus, banana. (8/10) Taste: moderate sweet, low bitter. (8/10) Palate: medium-light body, moderate-high carbonation, off-dry slightly funky finish. (4/5)
“Space Saison”, huh? OK, sure, why not? Not a lot to report here, but there doesn’t really need to be: it’s just a solidly well-done Saison, refreshing and flavourful without being too sweet or boozy. Mostly clean, but with jut a hint of farmhouse funk. (16/20)
