Fast forward to 2012: the craft beer wave has made these brands household names and turned Sam into a rock star. Funny how things can change.
Unfortunately, mainstream beer hasn’t changed: it’s still watered down and, for the most part, tasteless. To show the world just how interesting and flavorful a beer can be, these three brewers have concocted a brew containing parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme (yeah, just like the song). And I’m here to tell you: It works!
Similar to how these 3 idiosyncratic brewers were able to meld their own personalities together for the collaboration, the four spices blend nicely into a refreshing saisson. Here’s my tasting notes:
Pour: Uniform fluffy white head
Nose: Citrus with a slight hop fragrance
Taste: Strong spice up front though one spice does not dominate, nice hoppy finish, not overpowering.
Aftertaste: Now I’m getting some of that rosemary on the back of my tongue.
Overall: Very refreshing and drinkable. At 6.8% ABV, it truly can be a go to session beer for the summer.
