Hazy yellow golden colour with an average sized frothy white head. Belgian yeast, spices, peach, some other fruits and mild sweetness in the absolutely delicious aroma. The flavour is not that much Saison anymore as it’s quite strongly hopped with resiny hops, moderate bitterness, perfume and Belgian yeast. That flavour isn’t very clear. Grassy hops and strong tea bitterness in the aftertaste. Tasty.

Beautiful golden orange colour and huge foamy white head. Fruity, yeasty and lemon notes on the nose, a hint of mead too. Quite crispy mouth feel. Sweet and bitter citrus in the aroma. Grassy bitter hops. A hint of yeast also. The body is medium and the bitterness stays long in the after taste. This beer is so good, I’d recommend you to try it!

Bottle from Alko. Amber color, white head. Bitter taste with citrus, fruits, hops, earthy notes and grass. Nice crispy body. Dry bitter finish with fruits and hops. Very nice saison.

Bottled (from Alko Prisma, Vaasa). Quite much heazy yellow colour with a small white head. Aroma is citrus, mild farmyardy notes as well as some yeast and juniper. Flavour is citrus, juniper and rather sweet. A bit thin palate and lacks the proper farmyard I like in my Saison. Yet a refreshing beer.

Bottle. Hazy light yellow color with a medium thin frothy head. Spicy, sour aroma of lemon, juniper and wheat. Sour and medium bitter taste. Medium body. Well balanced package.

Kaatuu tulppaaniin kullankeltaisena ja hieman sameana, vaahto on melko niukka ja lievää pitsiä jättävä. Hajussa yhdistyy belgihiivaisuus, sitrus ja mausteisuus (etenkin pippuri). Alla on tummempaa marjaa (en saa ihan kiinni, jotain mallia mansikka, vadelma tai hyvin mehukas viinimarja) ja saisonille niin tyypillistä karviaista. Maussa on jälleen vahvana kombinaatio belgihiiva ja mausteisuus, nyt sitrus hieman laimeampana. Lisäksi löytyy jälleen karviaista ja marjapensaan lehtiä. Suutuntuma on melko kevyt, mutta virkistävä ja suht kuiva. Maistuva saison, jonka voisin ottaa hyvin kesäterassille mukaan. Suht simppeli, mutta kuitenkin monipuolinen, kaiken kaikkiaan miellyttävä kokonaisuus.

Bottle. Pours a hale golden orange with a medium, white head. Aroma is spicy and citrusy. Lemon and lemon peel are pretty strong. If you swirl the glass around, the juniper comes into the fore though not very strongly. Taste is fairly dry. There’s spiciness as well as the lemon and its peel. Some light caramel and breadiness as well as yeast. Dries up on the finish with spiciness and strong citrus flavors. Palate is medium with quite a bit of carbonation. A good saison, but was perhaps expecting a bit more.

.75l bottle @ Alko Pours hazy yellow with medium to hi head. Aroma is citrus, pineapple, malts, hops and floral. Flavor is citrus, yeast, pine, malts. Dry palate. Nice beer!

Good beer but not my style. Taste is light sweetness and bitterness. Light body, dry finish. Aroma is nice but nothing special.

Pours hazy pale golden with nice, white head. Aroma of fruits, juniper and hops. Flavour is bitter with juniper, fruits and malt.
