Bleddy Proper Job gets everywhere!
OK. THIS is the Saison. It looks much the same although has just a touch of haze and is more highly carbonated.
The aroma is maybe just a touch more fruity? The flavour is not so far away either, maybe just altogether lifted a little - a little more fruit, a little more spice, a little more jazz (just checking you’re still here
).
Lovely beer again, thank you! I might come back to this bar time and again.

It does. It was nice but seems to be more bitter on cask?
Yes, it's weaker than bottle isn't it? Could be more bitter because of that?
It is - bottled is 5.5%, cask is 4.5%
I think cask beers (for beer connoisseurs
) have a character that’s often more bitter than the bottled beers for the masses so maybe a slightly different recipe?
No idea if they do it but chucking some hops in the cask would increase the bitterness. I’ve truly gone of the fizzy gassed beers, spitfire is one of the worst in bottle form.It is - bottled is 5.5%, cask is 4.5%

I'm now in the Masai Mara and found that due to the very relaxed alcohol taxation rules, I can drink a double talisker 12yo for the princely sum of £1.95
Now on my 4th and the aches and pains of the day have disappeared
Oh and there is a murder log on the bank next to the bar

Good tasting mate..the yeast was Lallemand Farmhouse so they market it as a type of Saison yeast. I was concerned it wouldn't finish as dry as other strains so decided on using it for the Single.Had a couple of Proper Job and Spitfire at the pub and now back home enjoying a 5.1% Trappist Single from @dave_77 in the sun.
Again a lovely pale yellow-golden beer with a loose white head, good carbonation, and great clarity.

The aroma is a bit Saison like with a little spice, a little noble hop character, and a hint of cracker malt. The flavour matches the description with the addition of a slight hint of tartness at the start. If I had been guessing blind I might well have suggested this is a saison, though maybe a little muted. It is very nice though and as it happens I have a saison from the same stable so it will be interesting to compare the two.
Thanks Dave for another cracking beer!
It does have saison qualities but they are a bit subtle to me.
Bottle of Fullers ESB. One of my desert island beers.

That was a Saison yeast, actually a blend of two. Started with the Wyeast Dupont Strain and then a packet of French Saison dry yeast to make sure it finished dry. The dry was pitched 24 hours after the first.OK. THIS is the Saison. It looks much the same although has just a touch of haze and is more highly carbonated.

These two are tonight's tipple
Evening all, I’m late to the bar tonight. Followed up a busy day in Dublin with a sneaky round of golf at Leopardstown Race Track. The hotel Guiness is rather good, it’s the perfect night cap.
I've not seen Victory in years!

Hacker-Pschorr Stern Weisse. A very well balanced Dunkel. A step up on the more widely available Erdinger version. Comes with a free flip top bottle to refill with homebrew.
A taste test of my NZ Pale compared to Verdant’s latest offering.
My order of this week's Verdant mix pack is due tomorrow. Looking forward to drinking Under the Same Sky again. It was delicious last time they brewed it.
