Saisons were originally brewed as a low alcohol beer to hydrate farm workers during the warmer months. Hold Your Horses is a modern higher strength Saison that would probably not be very conducive to getting farm work done. For added complexity we dosed in Brett yeast prior to packaging the beer and allowed the cans to condition for over three months, giving the Brett time to work its magic. This beer will continue to evolve over time. Dry, highly carbonated and a little bit funky.

Such was its popularity in the German town of Goslar and surrounding areas during the 1800s, that there were over 80 Gose taverns (Gosenschenkes in German) dedicated to serving it.
