Saison de Deux Médecine
- slight gusher upon opening…doh!! First time I’ve had that problem
- hopefully an over-carbonation issue and not an infection of some kind
- this was different in terms of bottling b/c I estimated sugar based on 5 gallons and then adjusted to 2.5 gallons, but the finished product here was just over 2 gallons, so too much sugar seems like an issue here
- but wonder if dried wildflowers have strange impact on carbonation?
- anyway, back to the beer!
- dark gold, mostly clear with trace white head once in a glass
- floral, kind of dirty with ginger, obvious yarrow aromas
- lots of roots, yarrow stems, earthy
- very smooth and almost silky mouthfeel; vegetal finish and aftertaste
- not much Belgian yeast flavor or influence is one of my first impressions
- lots of yarrow and comes off a little “dirty” or dusty to me
The Curtain Wit
- clear light orange with trace white head
- aromas of honey, mild orange peel, ginger and coriander
- coriander comes out most on first sip
- light texture, smooth drinking with minor ginger zing
- not cloudy as I expected and maybe a tad darker as well
- dry, fruity finish yet not quite as flavorful as I had hoped
- some orange and light ginger; soft mouthfeel
- clean, tasty and super drinkable
