"Not including what the cherries did".... well, what the cherries did was produce a very yummy brew that made me think it was summer. I don't look at recipes until after i've savoured the brew, so I thought this was a not-so-sour sour initially. I've never had, or seen a saison so red in color. Thank you for sharing!

Nice red colour with a pinkish head. High carbonation. Got a slight tartness on the nose with the yeast character poking through with a hint of the cherries. Flavour wise; initially a soft cherry flavour, then the yeast character shines and dissipates leaving the cherries to finish. Dangerous on a summer day at 7% lol

This is super nice. Just enough cherry so as not to overpower the yeast but to give it beautiful colour and flavour.

I really enjoyed this one. The colour was oh so very pretty - and the fruit balance was spot on and paired nicely with the yeast. Refreshing and unique - thanks for sharing!
