Day 278-Beer 278 Le Paysan, Nickel Brook Brewing Co. Burlington, Ontario

Tonight's brew is a Belgian Saison, see Day 201, July 21 for a description of the style or search saison for comparables as saison is quickly becoming one of my favourite styles of beer.
This one poured a typical cloudy golden yellow colour with lots of head that when it finally subsided left only minimal lacing. It's aroma has a sour background with hints of tropical fruits, citrus and bready yeasts. The taste has hints  of lemon and tangerine zest up front with some spices and pepper in the background and a dry floral hop finish. Its not the best sample of the style but it still is an okay brew. 3.5 out of 5
