HB Strata IPA

HB Saison with what I thought were oxidation issues.

Cracked an ESB with known oxidation issues and decided the saison is phenolic.

Said Remmy it and grabbed a beer made by someone else to save my palette.

Ot tasted that way 6 months ago. Heck even 3 months ago. Really went south. One of my best recipes though.

Too bad. I guess looks are deceiving. Just looking at it I can taste the English malts and mid level English hops.

@camonick it is pretty good beer. I don't see it many places but I pick it up when I see it.

HB Raspberry Kettle Sour

HB Brett Saison. This one doesn’t suck.

@fourfarthing Golden Perch Saison. Really good looking orange tinged color, nice and clear. I don’t get oxidized. There are some phenols on the nose, but not too much. Nice prickly carbonation. I really like it. Going to the saison guidelines, I get some weight on the finish, which at first I thought was under attenuation. But as I drink it, I think it’s dry. Maybe some adjuncts or spices?

How do you compare the phenols in this to the ones in my saffron tripel (which I find to be too much). I’m wondering if it’s a function of being overly critical of your own beer. This was really good. As was the ESB.

2 of my all time favorites.

I liked that beer. Citrus and leather were my main take aways. Had a really pleasant, soft, funky finish.

I actually think I picked up some extra phenols rather than oxidation and today was a bad bottle as the last one I had seemed great. Would say the ESB went south the last month or two in a bad way, but you likely have a point on self criticism.
