Notes

​Dark Saison | 6.2% ABV

​Profile: Toasted Biscuit · Honeyed Grain · Peppery Snap

​The Story: A mahogany-dark farmhouse ale with a rustic Eldeen finish. Boldly malted but bone-dry, this brew is fermented with French Saison yeast for a signature spice. Engineered for the long treks and dusty ironways of the Lightning Rail.

​Walk with the woods. Rooted in the road.
