Weyerbacher Seventeen

Every year Weyerbacher releases a special brew to celebrate their anniversary...and obviously this is the seventeenth! Every year it's different and it's a surprise that I look forward to. This year we get a Saison brewed with spices. It poured a deep ripe apricot color with all manner of tastes and aromas swirling around: apples, peaches, pears, orange peel, and even a little pepper. 10.5% ABV, but not overwhelming, sweetly smooth. Looking for more on the backside, I'm getting a little over-ripe banana soaked in whiskey. Heavy, thick mouthfeel, nice end-of-the-day beverage.
