Bazi proprietress, Hilda Stevens, spent the last few months brewing up a recipe for a saison with Bryan Kielty of Lompoc Brewing. The result of the Bazi and Lompoc collaboration is the Forbidden Fruit saison. Brewed in a 15 barrel system with 64 gallons of black currant and a secret Belgian yeast, the saison has a delightful tart finish. Named the Forbidden Fruit due to the restrictions of growing black currant in the US during the 20th century. Mostly recently, those restrictions were lifted and black currant can now be grown in OR, NY, VT and CT.
