Enlightenment Illumination
Enlightenment Ales (Lowell, MA)
Saison / Farmhouse Ale | 6.8% ABV
COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION:
Illumination is a beer inspired by two of my favorite brewing traditions: the rustic farmhouse ales of Belgium and the generously hopped IPA's of America's West Coast. Born from a grist of barley, wheat and rye, and fermented with a blend of infamously expressive farmhouse ale yeasts, Illumination begins its life as a classic Saison, only to be transformed into something unique through robust additions of American dry hops. The result is a beer with an intensely tropical aroma, a juicy, citrus flavor, and a dry, crisp bitterness. While this beer may not provide immediate illumination to the mysteries of life, it's sure to at least brighten the corners.
