\nNew Holland says:<\/p>\n

“Golden Cap Saison is a modern interpretation of a traditional farmhouse ale. A soft, pale beer, Golden Cap embodies the flavors and aromas of summer fields. Brewed with an ancestor of wheat called spelt, its straw-colored body, lively carbonation and a unique fermentation profile evoke fresh cut hay and cracked peppercorn.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

New Holland Golden Cap Saison
\nSaison, 6.25% ABV
\n<\/em><\/p>\n

Sayeth the Guys:<\/em><\/p>\n

Ryan:<\/strong> For whatever reason this beer tends to get lost in the mix of the other beers I drink over the course of a summer.\u00a0 Bell’s Oberon, Goose Islands Summertime and a handful of IPA’s always find their way in to the fridge.\u00a0 But for whatever reason I tend to forget about the Golden Cap Saison.\u00a0 Consider myself reminded.<\/p>\n

This beer pours an almost creamsicle orange in color.\u00a0 The color is very vibrant.\u00a0 It pops.\u00a0 A fluffy, white head billows up with an aggressive pour but fades away fast and doesn’t leave much evidence behind.\u00a0 Take a whiff and you get a bit of funk and tartness in the nose.\u00a0 This almost smells more like a Berliner Weiss than a Saison.<\/p>\n

But the taste is all Saison; starting with a smooth wheatiness followed by a hint of tartness and a slightly spicy and dry finish.\u00a0 The carbonation is outstanding with this beer, very sparkling and lively.<\/p>\n

The 6.25% ABV puts it above the “session beer” category but it’s easy to put back a few of these without thinking about it.\u00a0 The alcohol is very well hidden.\u00a0 And this beer is just bursting with flavor.\u00a0 Note to self: buy more Golden Cap next summer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
