A Note on This Beer
Unless you’ve been in Washington State this time of year, there’s a good chance you’ve never experienced the juicy richness of an Okanogan Valley-grown apricot.
While the coastal cities are known for rain, this region’s dry climate (hot sunny days and cool autumn nights) make it ideal for fruit trees! Fortunately for all of you on Tavour, E9 Brewing has decided to share the wealth via a small stash of today’s Moon Maiden Saison!
This limited sipper drips with the sweet, jammy, floral succulence of the Pacific Northwest apricots it was aged on. The mixed culture base wraps it all in notes of earthy, barnyard funk, punctuated with dry fruit esters. A whisper of oaky vanilla glimmers on the finish.
It’s the kind of beer you’ll want to pour into a glass and wait a moment for the apricot-woven complexity to really open up. Just don’t wait to grab a bottle of this seasonal richness — we have less than 10 cases to go around!
E9 is stacked in Washington Beer Award medals!
