Upstream Legacy Seasonal Beer Release Party!!
July 30th, 2010 @ 4:30 – 5:30 PM
Saison Sorrel
The French word for season, saison, has become a stylistic designation to distinguish a group of beers from Wallonia, the French-speaking region of Belgium. Saison’s present a complex character that is both aggressive and subtle. Unmistakably Belgian and unequivocally rustic, they beckon exploration.

Hence, this quaint, anachronistic style ...of ale precedes many of the tight and detailed classifications that we now use to pigeonhole almost every beer. Today's Saisons share many things. They are rambunctious, frenetic at first, in both aroma and flavor; they exhibit an earthy quality like few other brews. Saison is also categorically pliant: its brewers making their own version at their own whim.

Upstreams Saison Sorrel is tropically spiced and fruited with dried whole hibiscus flowers from Jamaica, lemon grass, mango, passion fruit, pink guava, & strawberry puree’s, and yes like all of our Upstream Belgian/French saison and wit biers we do have a "secret spice" added as well. Another addition to the unique flavor of this fabulous product is the special Upstream Brewing Company’s proprietary yeast strain that’s blend was custom developed by the Brewing Science Institute under the direction of Corporate Brewmaster Michael Hall. I hope you enjoy the unique creativity of this fabulous seasonal beer. 6 % ABV, 12 IBU, 1.048 O.G.
