beer_name: Of Love & Regret (Import Series Vol. #1)
text: 12oz bottle poured into snifter. A: Hazy golden-straw colored ale with a nice fluffy white head with good retention. S: Aroma of typical saison esters and phenols. Also, aromas of anise, wormwood, nag champa, clove, and other undectable spices. T: The typical excellent stillwater saison flavors are there. However, the spicing is a bit too dominant. This brew definitly has a absinthe flavor. Interesting, but not particularly well balanced. M: The mouthfeel is perfect as usual. A nice strong carbonation supporting a rather full body. O: A very interesting beer which I will probably not buy again. Stillwater offers so many unique choices that are far better than this.
