Saison / Farmhouse Ale Beer Reviews

Wow! I have not had such a good reaction to a beer for some time. This beer is legit! Boulevard takes a classic older style and puts a little new age flare to it…and in a good way. Named in honor of fermentation vessel #7 which apparently produces a medley...

Honeymoon Saison is an ironic choice tonight, because my wife left me. Okay, yes, she’ll be back in four days, but even so, ironic. The latest offering in Summit’s unchained lineup, batch 07, was made just in time to be ready for brewer Sam Doniach’s wedding, thus the...
