UPDATED: OCT 15, 2009 Bottle, date stamped "LO6006A" Yep, a big horsey and brett smell. Cloudy yellow, with a crisp head. Actually, I think it’s a nice clean taste to start. Light pilsner type malts. Still a pretty young bottle, I popped it now and was rewarded with some nice sharp hop notes. Initial smell drops out as it warms, leading to a bit of lemony zest. Rounded out with pear and dry wine. A bit too fizzy, but thoroughly enjoyable.

Pours cloudy gold with a white head. Aroma of spice, touch barnyard. Little bit of citrus, finishes dry.

Gold color, single finger head. Peppery aroma. Really funky taste, kind of like stinky cheese. The funk really lingers after you drink it. I’m not a huge fan.

Appearance golden color with a hazy fizzy 1 finger head,little lacing. Aroma is sweet t hoppy with floral citrusy with sour farmhouse estery yeast. Balance sweet citrusy meduim tart a hint of grass. Mouthfeel was smooth crisp creamy bubbly delicate dry finish. Love it.

This is a great beer with a wonderfully complex flavor profile. thanks to the Ale Jail for this!

Clear, light golden colour and thin but tight head. Aroma of fresh green hops. Nice dry, bitter flavour. It remains fresh though and a slight sweetness comes through too. Very high carbonation.

My favourite saison!. Yeasty, spicy, fruity, citrus notes with a slight bitterness in the finish. Very refreshing.

Fantastic Beer. Had this xmas day instead of champagne. Poured a lovely golden colour with a big white head. Aromas of fruit and a nice crisp finish. Even non beer fans in the family enjoyed this one. Definitely buy this again!

Bottled (Best before 11/2007): Aroma is spicy, fruity, nbotes of citrus, spices (pepper) and grassy hops. Golden, yellow color, hazy, creamy white head. Flavor is very fruity, citrus, apricot, yeast, dry hops, grassy, light herbal. Dry finish. Wonderful.
