Beer Advocate Review #253


Beer: Saison Deluxe
Brewery: Southampton Publick House
Style: Saison
ABV: 7.4%
Serving: Bottle

Thanks to jzeillinger for this one. Shared with a friend last night over some pappardelle and salad. Some notes are succinct due to having friends over.

Poured from a 750ml. bottle, best before 12/10/14.

Appearance: A bright golden body that becomes progressively hazy as we near the end of the bottle. The first pour was almost all foam but my friend's glass was better. Fluffy clouds of head last quite a while.

Smell: Fruity, slight yeast and pepper.

Taste: Strong pepper though not overbearing and some lemon.

Mouthfeel: Zesty and lively with prickly carbonation and a very nice body all around.

Overall: Refreshing and tasty. I would have this again for sure.
