Bottle purchased in Hayden. Fair head on pale gold. Sour funky aroma with scents of cheese, soap and salt water. Smooth lightly foamy body. A tame funkiness. Reaches but doesn’t quite hit the high notes. Approachable. Soapy saltiness. Some pepper lightly mixed in and noticeable in the finish.

Jul 16, 2008 Golden in color with a moderate fluffy head. The aromas were herbaceous with a bunch of dill showing through. In the mouth it starts off fine but quickly fades leaving little flavor.

Jul 12, 2008 So far I’ve had every batch of this beauty. Still I believe it may be my favorite Bison product. My review is of the 2006: Pours a golden amber with slight head retention. Citrus, hops, farm waft to the nose. Flavor brings out grass notes combined with slight tart citrus hints, old hops, and a bit of spice. Lingering finish of grass and spice. Really like the delicate hop profile within this one as well. And funky 16.9 oz swingtops? Sold!

Jul 6, 2008 Straw gold pour with tight white head and lace. Aroma of Belgian yeast and corriander dominate. A sourish flavor that reminds me of bad apple juice. A hint of malt as well. Thin and watery and just a bit foamy. Poor example of the style to me but not undrinkable.

Jul 5, 2008 Bottle back from Greensboro. Poured a clear yellow color with some nice carbonation bubbles filtering up into the head. The carbonation came through in the flavor with a little bit of yeast and an unexpected but pleasant hop finish. Aroma was pretty interesting as well with some yeast, must, citrus, orange, and red fruit as well like plum and cherry. Very entertaining brew. One of the nicer saisons I have had.

Jun 22, 2008 50cl bottle from Willow Bend Liquors (Tampa, FL). rated on 4/16/08. Pours a cloudy golden color with one finger white head. Clearly visible pariculate matter floating in glass. Aroma is floral with notes of spice, yeast, bread, honey. Flavor is light and spicy with a yeasty-breadiness to it. Notes of banana and vanilla appear as it warms. Slightly bitter on finish. Light to medium-bodied.
