Product details
Beekeeper's Saison
The second those May flowers pop up, so do the pollinators. Our new Beekeeper’s Saison lets the agrarian roots of honey beer shine through with a pound of premium light amber honey. This Saison embodies the history of farmhouse brewing with traditional pilsner malt, noble Kent Golding hops, and classic French Saison yeast. Saisons have a tolerance for higher fermentation temperatures and can even improve the warmer they ferment! Notes of black pepper, exotic spice, a long dry finish, and bold fruity yeast aromatics make this a delightful Spring and Summer treat—for you, not the bees.
