HALIFAX, NS – As noted by Maritime Beer Report, the second annual vintage of a collaboration between North Brewing and winemakers Benjamin Bridge was released just before the New Year.
Saison de Pinot 2017 (7.1% abv) is described as follows:
This year’s version made with Pinot Meunier must from the beautiful Benjamin Bridge vineyards. Notes of honeydew, strawberries, tart orange, rose hips and a light funk.
The new edition of Saison de Pinot is available now at the North Brewing retail locations in Halifax and Dartmouth while supplies last.

- Greg C. is drinking a Bourbon Barrel Aged Dark Saison by Mascot Brewery at King & DufferinPromising aroma with notes of spice, dark fruit, oak & vanilla. Flavour starts in the same direction but lacks depth and finishes light.
- Greg C. is drinking a Trappist Holiday Ale by Spencer Brewery at King & Dufferin1+ year old bottle. Aroma of port and spice, notes that follow in the flavour plus cherry & menthol. Some booze heat despite the age. Nice.
- Greg C. is drinking an Oude Geuze (Vieille) by Brouwerij Oud Beersel at King & DufferinNot as lip-puckeringly sour or mind-bendingly complex as some lambics, but still an old fave that I always enjoy.
- Greg C. is drinking a No Love Lost Sour Cherry Saison by Mascot Brewery at King & DufferinDelivers what the name promises - a rather good Saison laced with sour cherry that is unmistakably present but not overpowering.
- Greg C. is drinking a Coffee Oatmeal Stout by Bellwoods Brewery at King & DufferinSurprisingly good for a 20-month-old bottle. Coffee is still nice & punchy, good notes of chocolate, oats & nuts in the background.
