| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jul 18, 2004 Peachy-orange in colour. Aroma had lots of citrus, hoppy, some sweetness. Flavour had lots of oranges, peaches, some spices. Mild bitterness, medium body and mild carbonation. Finishes with a citrusy bitterness and a wonderful mouthfeel. Very refreshing and enjoyable. sliffy (2012), Columbus, Ohio, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Jan 1, 2008 Bottle thanks to my festivus master: Pours a hazy gold with a white creamy head. Aroma, floral and perfumey notes, some spices, honey. Flavor, some spices, pepper and cloves, lightly sweet malts, bready, spicy and herbal hops on the finish, perfumey throughout, and on the dry side. Very interesting. fordest (1954), Santee/San Diego, California, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Dec 13, 2007 12 oz bottle shared with toncatcher. Some earthy aromas with some spice in there too. Flavors were simple with malt background and touches of spice and a dry finish. Not bad. CharlesDarwin (1873), Point Judith, Rhode Island, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jul 9, 2009 On tap at the Beer Bistro - Toronto, Ontario. Pours a cloudy middle golden-orange, with a nice white foamy head. Interesting marmalade-like nose. Cooked orange rind. A bit of alcohol and some yeast. But, lots of marmalade. Flavor is coarser. Unique and yeast-inflected. Dry. There’s some wet, moldy malt character that comes through that I don’t enjoy. Also, some phenolic bitterness that gets a little heavy. Alright. rudolf (1789), Buffalo, New York, USA

Lots going on in the flavor. Clove, orange, tonic (this is the first time I’ve used this in a description in a good way), spicing. good stuff. shp555 (1777), Atlanta, Georgia, USA

| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Dec 27, 2006 Bottle from Blankboy - thanks. Pours out an orange color without much of a head. Smell is some orange, and spice. Taste is sweet and pretty smooth. Perhaps not really what I was expecting from a saison, but it does the trick. A pretty good session beer really.
