Tasting- Dogfish Head/Victory/Stone Saison du BUFF (Brewers United for Freedom of Flavor)

Dogfish Head/Victory/Stone Saison du BUFF (Brewers United for Freedom of Flavor) is priced at $4.45/ 12 oz and $15.95/ 4 pack. It is 7.7% ABV brewed with parsley, sage, rosemary, and thyme. The Vintage Cellar said, "This beer purs a beautiful pale gold with a white head of foam. pronounced herbal characteristics, a wonderful blend of sage, lemon, thyme, rosemary. It has some very pleasant citrusy notes, perhaps from the lemon thyme and the Citra dry-hop. And the Belgian yeast strain contributes low level banana esters and a hint of clove. The taste starts with the herbal blend in the forefront, and then is backed by a clean malt balance and a very nice citrus and tropical fruit-influenced finish. The finish has a substantial, but balanced hop bitterness and hop flavor. It is a very dry beer, and has a nice refreshing quality that makes it wonderful for this time of year". I did not like this beer as much of the others because of the string herbal elements of the beer ,but i enjoyed the hints of lemon and orange.
