Societe The Harlot

Aroma: “Lemongrass and tangerine with a more peppery yeast character behind that. Very saison-like. Malt character brings notes of biscuit and honey. Some hops character brings some spice elements.”

Flavor: “More citrus, herbal, and grassy with a bit of bready malt in the finish. Peppery phenols. Moderate low sweetness with low bitterness and a nice dry finish with a bit of hops bitterness that’s not overpowering. Refreshing.”

Overall: “Lemon and supporting fruits are the focus of the flavor with a body to support. It’s a light beer and easy-drinking. I could finish a lot of these on a hot day. Very refreshing.”
