Research Notes

• The brewery home page and its tap list page returned no beer listings in fetched form.
• The Untappd brewery beer list (first page only, about 25 beers) did not include this name; the brewery has hundreds of beers listed, so it may sit further down.
• Web searches for the exact name with the brewery name, with Untappd, and with "saison" returned nothing relevant.
• Likely a small batch or taproom only release; style, ABV and ingredients remain unverified.
• No 2026 medal announcement from the brewery was found.
• Researched 2026-10-13.
• Second pass 2026-10-13: Found the explicitly dated 2026 release and retained its published ABV. The August 2025 review reports 3.1% for an earlier release; that value was not transferred to this year's profile. No IBU or hop varieties were found.
• Field pass 2026-10-13: A targeted brewery domain search found no matching page. A search excluding the already recorded Untappd and magazine sources found no matching IBU or hop specification source.
• Deep dive pass 2026-10-14: the brewery menu was read again; it gives no detail beyond the style.
