Ever so often a beer comes along and makes you reconsider what a beer really can be. It pushes the boundaries and break all limitations by incorporating flavors which are simply delicious, rather than typical. Instead of asking ‘why’, this beer asks ‘what the F not!’ It should be no suprize, that the most recent beer to fulfill this stature is a collaboration beer brewed by some of the community’s greatest minds; Stone, Victory and Dogfish Head. The Saison du BUFF is Belgian-style saison brewed with parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme.
BUFF: Brewers United for Freedom of Flavor. A clandestine organization commided to liberating collective taste buds, citing the dastardly and/or oppresive reign of so called ‘fizzy yellow beer’. This is the sentiment on the back neck of the bottle (something tells me it was written by Greg Koch of Stone – just a guess), and does so perfectly represent the purpose of this beer; to help people realize true flavor and break free from the shackles of oppression which have held down our taste buds for to long!
