The first few from the GoT series sold out fast. And, being this far south from the brewery, I held slim hope I would find even the fifth if the series. Kroger had four. Now they only have two. Can't wait to get it chilled and try it.
Three-Eyed Raven:
Push through the thick brambles and present yourself to the Three-Eyed Raven. Abiding in the shadows of the Three-Eyed Raven lies this deceptive Dark Saison. The ominous Three-Eyed Raven inspired us to brew a Dark Saison ale, a hybrid style open to brewer’s imagination. In the end it is neither a pure saison nor your typical dark beer, but instead a delectable blend that both deceives and thrills the senses.
Tasting Notes
Three-Eyed Raven harbors a deep dark brown, almost jet-black color with a light tan head. Yeast forward aromas are packed with peppery phenolics and fruity esters. Despite what you might expect from a dark hued beer, the flavor brings to mind a traditional saison: a light, malty body with a hint of sweetness, and roast accentuated by herbal and spicy hops, yet underpinned by pleasant yeastiness. Finish is crisp, with lingering notes of herbal hops and Belgian yeast.
Malt: Our carefully crafted mixture of specialty malts. Sugar: Dark Candi Hops: Hallertau Spalt Select, Tettenang and Bravo Spices: None ABV: 7.2% Available on draft and in 750ml bottles.
