MISTRAL

RIESLING BARREL AGED SAISON

Celebrated by some as the Wind of Good Health, the Mistral blows from the North, bringing clarity of light & air. While elsewhere may be overcast, this zephyr leaves a path of sunny skies in its wake. With its dry, bright & wine-like character, this Riesling Barrel-aged Saison will drive away the clouds, making way for SPRING.

BREWER’S NOTES
