    So the weather was just too nice for me to be sitting in an office, so I took the afternoon off, and what do I come home to?

    This from Wicked Weed!

    Thanks Brandon! Started with the V Saison, really fruity. Also have a growler of the Freak of Nature DIPA.

    Made a good haul today/yesterday: some are new to me, some are old, and a few are for aging

    Excited for this one!

    It's everything I hoped it would be and more! This might edge out tank 7 for me as my favorite farmhouse ale

    Is the V Saison too fruity? I didn't get the opportunity to try nearly as many of the beers as I would have liked as we were on a tight schedule...

    I don't see a date on it anywhere. This is my fourth bottle from that particular store and they just keep getting better and better. Definitely one of my favs

    Not too fruity at all. Just the right amount of raspberries and chocolate. Really easy drinking. I finished that 32 oz growler off tonight.

    Excited about watching the tourney with Freak of Nature this weekend.

    I'm sipping on this this afternoon. Perfect weather for some porch drinking.

    It was pretty good. I prefer a little more funk for my saisons than it had. I'd really like to find some saisons around here that have some light hops/spice to them but a lot are pretty straightforward.

    Agreed on the hops and spice. Have you ever tried tank 7 from boulevard? I think it fits that profile you described

    I've had the Tank 7 before as well and it's pretty decent. In our very first trade Hooker sent me a hopped saison from JesterKing called El Cedro that is probably my favorite saison I've had so far. It was really unique.
