Chico, CA

Style: Saison

ABV: 7.5

Staff Review: Pours a beautiful golden color with a thin white head. Citrus aromas welcome the nose. Tastes refreshingly crisp, thanks to locally grown Mandarin oranges, a portion of which were handpicked by the monks living on the grounds of the Abbey of New Clairvaux. Finishes with a nice kick of pepper. Enjoyed on a late Spring evening with chicken curry, but we can’t wait to sip this on a hot Summer night.
