    Great flavour

    Style: Tea Infused Saison
    Similar To: Black Oak Saison, Dieu du Ceil Rose d’hibiscus
    Tasting Notes:
    Nose: Very floral, slight sour notes
    Palate: Hibiscus Saison starts off with a refreshing, almost juice-like tartness. Effervescent and bubbly we transition into the delicate, light, malt sweetness and crisp, herbal hop character that is the backbone of this beer. Lastly the spice and clove character from the yeast comes through in a dry, clean finish.
    Other Notes:
    This beer is pink due to the inclusion of actual hibiscus tea leaves in the boil. It is rather more tart than other saisons, and as such is has a somewhat juice like character on its front end. This beer is very good for those not familiar with craft, or who don’t like overly bitter beer. This beer is very light tasting, and drinks very refreshingly. The finish, with a clove-like phenol taste is what brings it back into the Saison style.
