Beer - #452 - Gigantic - Volta

Beer from Portland - Gigantic Volta - Brewed by Gigantic Brewing Co. and it's in the style that is a  Saison and I gave the game away before but they're in PortlandOregon USA 'Murica

This was on tap so I have a 1 litre bottle (34 fl oz), and at 8.4% ABV this makes it a total of 6.63 standard drinks in NZ. The bottle would be around 680-700 calories.

A word sonnet: Volta is a delightfully spicy, fruity summer saison, yet a beer for any season.

Weirdly we're having a late dash of winter blues, it's cold, wet and windy outside and so a summery beer seems a bit at odds.

Her's the label art,  just in case, for no reason, and because this was on tap and not in glass.

Well not in a packaged glass,  if pedantic is called for.
