Birds Fly Sout Rustic Sunday

Rustic Sunday is an interesting rye forward saison with sour notes. Uses Solera, mixed fermentation, Sauvignon Blanc puncheons, and rye. I don't know if the mixed fermentation comes from the puncheons or if the brewers pitch critters. Does puncheon = barrel or stave? I know that Solera involves blending beers of different ages but don't know exactly how BFS does it. Do they blend just before bottling of mix ages while aging?

My first taste on draft in Atlanta was yummy. 

I have had several bottles since then. 

BeerAdvocate rates it as Outstanding, the 7,187th best beer overall, and the 305th best Belgian Saison.

Rating = 6 glasses.
