COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION: This culinary delight is a rich farmhouse-style saison brewed with a generous helping of aromatic Turkish bay leaves and a dose of coarsely ground Tellicherry black peppercorns. The wild fermentation is finished off with cultured brettanomyces, which lend a noticeable sour note. As a collaboration between celebrated Louisville chef, Josh Lehman, and the brewers at Against the Grain, this beer highlights the interplay of cooking and brewing in a single glass. Complex, yet refreshing, this beer has a wild, perfumey aroma that prepares the palate for the tangy, yeasty flavor that mingles with spiciness from the spices as well as the phenols produced in fermentation.

    Pours hazy topaz with a fair ivory head. Aroma features coriander, herbal, spice and fresh malt notes. Flavor presents herbaherbal, spice, fresh malt and subtle resiny hop tones. Texture offers fair body and peppy fizz. Bay and pepper your - well, you know.

    I had this beer on draft at Mikkeller Bar in Copenhagen Denmark. This was a particularly nice beer that I had - it was light but spicy and plenty funky. It was a weird beer but a nice one. Mildly sour, funky, spicy. I'd have this again.
