Pours deep orange in the glass with a lovely very firm fluffy
hear head. The aroma on the noise is of spicy with a touch of pepper
from the Belgian yeast following up with orange citrus notes.
Taste wise yeast spices and phenol playing a major role, finish in with
a shot but pleasant hop bite. The body was a little bigger and the carbonate a
little on the low side than I would have expecting from a Sasion, but did not
affect it drinkability.
It is something that could be quite popular on draft filling on
the bar, filling a niche for an a approachable, but with something a little
different in a beverage. An Irish shock top perhaps? Food wise could see
it pairing nicely with some fish cakes or just something to enjoy on
a summer's day, BBQing, if we ever get one again….
A big thank you to Jack Cody's for sending these beers to try
