Lake of bays river walker

Anyone else get to try this? Anyone able to narrow down the style. Quite hoppy, and dry, reminds me of a Belgium ale, but there is a a touch of tartness and pepperinesss..... Did they try and brew a saison, or is the pepperiness coming from the ginger they used. All in all an interesting brew.

Agreed, the Cascade was syrupy, and cloying. The Hellertau was pleasantly grassy, and not too bad. As mentionned though, can't knock them for the effort. I could see these being some gateway beers for future craft drinkers.

And the regular version is 11.5%. This one seems to be 13.5%, the same as the barrel version listed on RB.
