De Glazen Toren Saison D’Erpe-Mere

Big thanks to David, owner of Hops & Grain in Savannah, for sharing this bottle of De Glazen Toren Saison D’Erpe-Mere with us on podcast 60!

Very pretty pour on this beer, a nice cloudy pear juice like color. The aroma is a bit of citrus with a mild, but classic, saison yeast aroma. More citrus in the taste, along with a good bit of grain and hay, a slight bit of apple sweetness popped out after it warmed for a few seconds. A nice attribute to this was a fairly creamy mouth feel. I was expecting something a bit more effervescent, or Champagne like, but this has a much denser body to it.

This was a fantastic Saison, and maybe not something I would have necessarily picked up on myself. Thanks again David!
