The nose leads with bright citrus and floral notes, where lavender lifts above a subtle lemon zest. Sea salt adds a mineral dimension that grounds the more delicate botanical elements without sharpening the overall impression.
◐ Taste
Entry is crisp and refreshing, with tart acidity that moves across the palate without harshness. The salt enhances the sour character while lavender provides a gentle floral counterpoint; the finish is clean and dry, with subtle yeasty undertones that suggest the saison's farmhouse character.
◑ Finish
The finish is brief and clean, leaving behind a dry, slightly mineral aftertaste with lingering lemon and lavender notes. At 4% ABV, the beer recovers quickly, inviting another sip.
