The sun ain't the only thing risin': Sunrise Ruffalo Saison

Here we have a homebrew creation from Erich and myself named Sunrise Ruffalo Saison. The beer was brewed during an Oscars red carpet pre-show, where Mark Ruffalo and his oddly named wife were interviewed by some sexy idiot. The name immediately stuck out to us as being perfect for a beverage or something nasty to try out while dewin' it. Since we had a new beverage in the works and didn't feel like figuring out what a Sunrise Ruffalo would be on eachother, our beer child was named.

Full disclosure, credit for the creation of 'SunRuf' belongs entirely to Erich. He came up with the recipe and did most of the heavy lifting during the lengthy brew-making process. However, much like the non-creative producers who awkwardly end every Oscar night by taking the trophy for Best Picture, I get to take the victory lap since I paid for the shit that made it.

I'm not too familiar with saisons so I can't tell you how Sunrise compares with others of the style, but I can tell you it tastes great. Some floral notes, a little citrus, sweet but crisp with a smooth finish. It's the perfect spring beer to drink after work while I watch baseball and pretend I care about what's happening, before giving up and masturbating to pictures of Mark Ruffalo's wife.
