Stone, Victory, & Dogfish Head Colaboration - Saison Du Buff (Stone Session) Review

Type: Farmhouse Ale

ABV: 6.8%

Sight: Orange tinted yellow with light-red hues throughout...A rocky thick white head that dissolves slowly.

Aroma: Orange peel, spice, and a sweet malt balanced perfectly.

Taste: Citrusy sweetness of grapefruit, orange, and a touch of lemon come through nicely. Clove or corriander help sweeten up the nice light malty backbone. Another spice comes through, I think rosemary, but could be wrong. There is a bit of bitterness that is inviting and helps add some dryness to things.

Overall: Expected alot out of this collaboration, it delivered and then some. Sweetness, hoppy bitterness, and the uniqueness of ingredients all come together well to make this a top notch beer. I didn't get the specifics of the extra spices of italian, but it didn't matter to me. A great beer from 3 of the best breweries out there. I wouldn't expect anything less.
