OK, so this brewery is close to the Baseball Hall of Fame in the pure American burg of Cooperstown, but the label says they are just 3,264 miles from Brussels. It feels a bit closer when you sip this saison.
Ommegang Hennepin is named for the Belgian missionary that is credited as being the first European to see Niagara Falls. The brew pours a bright straw color with a head that reminds you of a frothy coffee drink. The flavor has some farmhouse funk, but has some pronounced crisp notes, too. A beer worth investigating.
