Sierra Nevada Ovila Abbey Saison (With Mandarin Oranges And Peppercorns)

Sierra Nevada Ovila Abbey Saison is brewed with Mandarin oranges and peppercorns.

This pours with a very pretty golden orange color with a lackluster head that disappeared very quickly. Sweet malt, spicy yeast and peppercorns on the nose with a hint of the Mandarin Oranges. The peppercorns leave a firm imprint on the taste of this beer. I don’t dislike this beer, but I just wish the pepper and yeast were just a bit more muted. In the end it’s all a little too abrasive for my tastes.

This is one of those beers. I’m not disappointed I tried it, but I won’t be back for more.
