My beer, it's looking at you. My beer is angry with you. Look at those beerfull eyes, feel the heat. The label says, "Crisp + Zesty + Spicy," but those eye say something far more menacing. They say, "Woodland hate."
Somerset Saison, no more. I rename this beer Woodland Hate, and you are only allowed to drink it after you win a staring contest with it. Let me tell you a story.
Passing through the aisles at my local, my mind roaming innocently, I felt an intense burning on the back of my neck. It was just as if some demon's cloven claw-fang snagged on my soul and killed everything I ever loved. I turned and bravely met the cold gaze of my spiritual assassin. The hart and I were locked in combat, our wills pressing at the boundaries of each other existence. BANG! My hand, faster than reflection, peeled through the onion skins of time and experience, to wrap itself around the beast's neck. Freed from the ice cave that gave it power and persistence, we fought to the death, and victory was mine. I possessed my demon and brought it home.
The hart of the Woodland Hate bubbled and foamed an anger that lasted. Its golden pelt settled into the cage I made for it. Then I consumed it. It tasted wild at first, sour, but when we understood each other the rage died as quickly as it had first frothed over. I was left bitter. Maybe the disappointment I felt was the curse those eyes whispered to me when I first walked past.
Basically, this beer is jut OK, if you like saisons. There is also a cool illustration on the label.
