Beer Description: Sundial pours a foggy gold with tinges of copper. The aroma is of peppery spice with citrus, light pine and stone fruit. The initial flavor is a burst of fruity spice provided by a traditional Belgian Saison yeast. This is complimented by refreshing highlights of tangerine, lemon, pear, and apple imbued by Mandarina Bavaria dry hops. Subtle floral notes linger from an addition of local wildflower honey.
ABV: 7.3% IBU: 30

About the Brewery: Located in Bloomington, Indiana, Upland’s rich history dates all the way back to 1998. Taking traditional recipes and making them a bit more awesome, Upland Brewing Co. came up with their own recipes rooted with inspiration from good beer and good friends, providing a fresh local option to their communities. The name Upland comes from the term geologists gave to this area of Southern Indiana land which was never overrun by the glaciers that flattened much of Indiana’s landscape. The adversity of the land bred independent thinkers who had strong wills, a connection to the land, and a wry sense of humor about life. Upland’s approach to brewing beer honors the spirit of these people and this place.
