Local Hero #6: Saison Deux

Local Hero #6 is west sound home brewer Brian Thatcher’s gold medal winning version of this classic Belgian-style farmhouse ale. Saison Deux is pale straw yellow with an earthy, spicy yeast character complimented by a dry, cracker-like malt flavor and a firm, crisp bitterness. Lots of distinctive farmhouse ale character in this smooth and quaffable beer.
