With the days growing darker and daylight hours being squeezed to a minimum, things can get pretty glum. At least the season inspired Dageraad Brewing to create this product.

The Dark Days Saison is brewed with spices and incorporates golden naked oats and fennel into the recipe. The 5.6% ABV beverage was right up my alley, as saisons are a favourite family for the Sip Advisor.

This limited release can only be found on tap at Dageraad, so I’m lucky to have got the chance to sample the brew. It won’t stick around forever, so those curious should get out to Burnaby quickly.

As Mrs. Sip and I told the crew operating the Dageraad booth at the BC Beer Awards, they are one of the few Lower Mainland establishments we have yet to visit. For shame!
