Bam Noire

Name – Bam Noire
Country – United States
Type – Saison

Appearance – Poured a very dark brown, borderline black, with dark red highlights along the edges of the glass with a big with head.

Smell – Yeast and dark fruits are the big smell here and pretty much all I was picking up.

Taste – Very dry yeasty taste with dark fruit presence and a little bit of some sour apple notes in there as well.

My first try of a Jolly Pumpkin beer is Bam Noire, which they classify as a dark saison.  I agree with that but also the presence of the sour apple takes it close to a sour as well.  A very different beer if you are expecting a normal saison but every enjoyable.

Overall Grade – B-
