Hosted by Good Word Brewing and the City of Duluth, the Les Bon Invitational on Saturday is a celebration of saison, mixed fermentation beer, ciders, natural wine and oysters on Duluth’s Town Green. And all proceeds go to further the mission of Oyster South, supporting aquaculture in the Southeast.
And with that, Good Word’s new mixed fermentation beer, Lesser Gods Saison, is this weeks beer pick.
Beer Pick
Lesser Gods Saison
Good Word Brewing, Duluth, Georgia
Available for a limited time in single bottles
Profile
Good Word’s Lesser Gods is the brewpub’s first mixed culture beer. Blended and bottled with the help of David Fuhrer of Cellar Gang or Die in Charlotte, it’s a youthful saison with a surprising array of aromas and favors. Look for floral notes in the nose, with hints of apricot, light acidity, and what Good Word brewer Todd Dimatteo calls “some young funk.”
Pair with
From the Good Word menu, try Lesser Gods with steamed mussels, the shrimp roll, or the confit pork belly. It would be great with grilled salmon or spicy Thai or Vietnamese food, too.
