Advent Beer Calendar 2019: Day 18: 4 Pines Christmas Saison
Today’s Advent beer calendar selection takes us around the world to Australia, to the 4 Pines Brewing Company located in Brookvale, New South Wales (not far from Sydney). Christmas down under takes place during the summer so a lighter, warm weather-friendly style is appropriate, and thus 4 Pines offers up Christmas Saison for the holiday.
This holiday saison is 5.5% alcohol by volume and spiced with yuletide spices for that special summertime Christmas treat. The brewery says:
That beautiful drama that is an Aussie Christmas. A symphony of strangeness & love: Mum rushes to finish the roast, pop falls asleep & your aunty, well, she’s just plain weird. Nutmeg, clove, coriander seeds, ginger, cinnamon & all-spice all wrapped up in a light-bodied farmhouse ale sliding down a crocodile mile. From field to glass.
Tis the Saison.
Cheers to a southern hemisphere holiday!
