Wild Dog Colorado Saison
Found this on my first visit to Beltway Fine Wine and Spirits near Towson, MD. Big fan of pretty much everything else from Flying Dog, including possibly the coolest labels on any bottles out there. This one didn't have the great label, but I was still excited. Not the best pour on my part so there was a slight amount of head, but immediately there was a very nice golden-orange body. There was plenty of carbonation and the smell of yeast was fairly strong as well. And that's what you taste right away; the yeast, after the first sip, you notice the slight acidity. On subsequent sips you taste more of the citrus elements to it, as well as sweetness. Overall, it is a very smooth drink. This isn't the best representation of a saison (nor is it supposed to be?), and it won't go down as my favorite flying dog beer, but it was an enjoyable one.
