had on my younger self, in fact it was largely the catalyst for starting Wildflower. In the years since we have had Wildflower, we have been fortunate to brew collaboration beers with family Thiriez now on three occasions. In its third subsequent year (2024) it was made when Wildflower co-owners Chris and Emily Allen made their pilgrimage to Esquelbecq with hop-laden suitcases to deliver fresh Motueka hops to this very special place and once again cook a wort similar to their iconic hop-driven saison Etoile du Nord, yet with a heavy Motueka hop bill instead of the northern hemisphere-Noble hop charge it is known for. The photo below is Chris and Emily with Daniel and his daughter Clara (who has since this photo taken over management of the brewery following Daniel's retirement). The result is a silky-smooth palate with sweet light-roast barley all back ended with the limey goodness we know motueka to offer. This is a straight monoculture saison, not mixed culture and is best to be consumed within the year rather than aged. Bernadette painted some wattle with poppies for the label, the same as the 2023 edition. We imported these bottles directly from Brasserie Thiriez and they have ben held in temperature controlled conditions their entire journey. Ver menos
