What the brewer says

“This blend features Galaxy dry hops with a blend of low/medium acidity saison. Citrus, papaya, and grapefruit.”

What our panel thought

Aroma: “Very juicy aroma. Big, sweet and tart tropical aroma with passion fruit and pineapple, which blends into the orange and tangerine. Slightly earthy hops aroma. Wild, earthy, and funky.” Flavor: “Lemon, passion fruit, cherry pie. Pleasant tartness and an herbal hops finish. Low sweetness into high acidity works nicely with the juicy flavors and aromas. Lingering lactic acidity on the back of the tongue. The hops meld into what you expect from an acidic beer—round citrus with distinct but mellow lemon-lime notes.” Overall: “A Galaxy version of a tart mixed-fermentati­on beer. Nice citrus flavors and an interestin­g earthy character from the combinatio­n of hops and fermentati­on. Very tasty beer.”
