Oxbow Noel Dark Saison

Oxbow Noel: 6.5 – So when the tags for ‘Oxbow’, ‘Dark Saison’, and ‘Christmas’ pop up – well it certainly piques our interest, but we’d ask you to hold back hype. Oh, of course, this is still a great beer, and we’d expect nothing less from Oxbow at this point. It feels a little porter like, and the small amount of sweet and spice here is enough to make it Christmas-y without being a heavy nutmeg/cinnamon affair. However, it’s overall just a pretty good dark saison and not a true ‘gift’ to the world.

Price Average: $8 draft

Oxbow Harvest Wet Hopped Saison

Oxbow Harvest: 7.0 – We’re perfectly sure if given the same beer where one is dry-hopped and the other wet you could tell there’s something different about it. As for what exactly that is bringing to this saison though – it’s hard to say. This is mostly because by being an Oxbow saison it’s pretty freaken good, and you’re not sure if that’s typical oxbow character or specifically whatever magic wet-hopping does.

Price Average: $5
