We've just tapped the last EVER keg of Matilda Bay Barking Duck Saison as they've decided to discontinue it (not sure why). The new beers from MB are a scaled down Alpha American Pale Ale (they haven't finalised the name yet but I'm tasting the latest batch on Monday) and a dunkelweizen called Sebastian (named after one of the brewer's pet duck I believe).
Not sure whether I'll get another Saison on tap (if so, it'll be Bridge Road's version) or a different style. Post your suggestions!
Though certainly not to everyones taste, at least 'the duck' was out there trying something different. Put me down for a vote for Bridge Road.Ben Krauss' beers are made with beer drinkers as well as beer 'thinkers' in mind. That plus I can't think of any other local saisons of the top of my head!
