Cellar West Brewery Farmhouse Saison

What the brewers say

“With wheat, rye, oats, and European hops.”

What our panel thought

“Dry and toasty on the nose with passion fruit, floral hops, white pepper. Passion-fruit tartness in the sip balances the light malty body, complements the citrus and woody hop bitterness and spicy phenols that linger.”

What our editors thought

“Classic saison aromas hit strong and fast—slightly bready, mildly rustic, with light orange and floral highlights. Hearty in the sip, as the fruitier notes give way to a full bready body with clean floral freshness.”

REVIEWS FOR YOU >

Cellar West Brewery Barrel Select 2023

“Aroma of tropical fruit mixed with lime, light woody background. Mixed fruit esters in the flavor, some overripe/dank pineapple layered on top of light phenolic woody notes. Medium-strong hop bitterness lingers.”

Abandoned Building Brewery Lola's Belgian Farmhouse Saison

“Hay and lemongrass with hints of banana hit the nose first. A sweet, funky amalgamation of herby, citrusy spice. PIllowy peppercorn with floral grace notes. Biscuity malt lays the groundwork for effervescent carbonation and a bitter finish. A minerality to the aftertaste.”

Cellar West Artisan Ales Nightingale

Fantastic tropical-hop aroma, with hop-driven orange-citrus notes fading to allow spicy phenolics to emerge—notes of wood and pepper, with light malt in the background. Crisp, balancing bitterness with lightly sweet malt and spicy-woody notes. Light acidity. Balanced fruit and spice. Effervescent.
