Off Color Le Predateur

Our lion friend spent a year abroad in college in (wait for it) Lyon. Le Predateur is brewed with imported French malts and fermented with a French saison yeast as a nod to that insufferable, overwrought French persona he came back with for the next few months. Rustic peppery phenols and rotund fruit notes are coupled with Nelson Sauvin hopping. Despite being from New Zealand, Nelson Sauvin lend the similarly lush, tropical fruit and minerality of their namesake, Bordeaux native Sauvignon Blanc grapes. We are told there is some sort of connection between France and wine.
