&#40;750ml bottle, thanks kmweaver&#41; Small off-white head atop cloudy lemon body. Aroma is medium sweet, dusky, yeasty, lemon, apple. Taste is medium sweet, herbal, dusky/yeast, some lemon, pepper. Somewhat dry finish. Medium body, some duskiness. Impressive American saison.

<b>Objectively speaking:</b> An awesome example of which one glass was not enough. <br /> <b>I like:</b> Very fresh opening. Healthy white head. Charming meringue notes combine with the wheat to form a remarkably refreshing package. The yeast whispers spicy messages. Crisp hay-like maltiness. Remarkably attenuated for an American example. <br /> <b>I dislike:</b> I only dislike how hard it is to take possession of.

Ratebeer rating # 3,800!. 750ml bottle. Poured a medium and hazy golden / yellow color with a large sized white head. Aromas of yeast, spices, and fruity. I was also getting some funkiness in there. Tastes of fruits, apples, spices, and citrus.

Pours a transparent golden with a frothy well-lcaing white head. Aroma of lightly sweet biscuity Belgian malt with some floral grassy hops. Body starts with a decent malty sweetness and lots of grassy earthy hops. Finishes drier with an authentic Belgian yeastiness. A pretty true to style and drinkable saison.
