What Our Editors Thought

“Tropical-fruit aroma with mango, guava, and a lightly toasted wood note. Intense bitterness in the sip overwhelms the fruit notes, shouting down the softer voices.”

What Our Panel Thought

“Aroma of tropical fruit mixed with lime, light woody background. Mixed fruit esters in the flavor, some overripe/dank pineapple layered on top of light phenolic woody notes. Medium-strong hop bitterness lingers.”

What the Brewers Say

“Oak-aged Brett saison dry-hopped with Citra, Nectaron.”
