pojo41 (315), Hattiesburg, Mississippi, USA Jun 6, 2008 Pours a hazy gold color with a white fluffy head that doesn’t last long but leaves a good lacing. Spicy, malty aroma with a hint of hops. I had to let this warm a bit to really appreciate the flavors. Malt, spice, citrus and hops. Very tasty. mgoy (343), Oak Brook, Illinois, USA Jun 3, 2008 Brooklyn Local 1 is a clear yellow beer with a very pronounced white airy head. The aroma is very sweet with notes of alcohol and some strong typical belgium wit characteristics. The flavor properly mimics the aroma with a very nice and spicy finish. This is a fantastic beer. french tickler (642), Aylmer, Quebec, Canada Jun 3, 2008 Shared with Pyrozoid

Notes: Very interesting fruity brew... blankboy (3156), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Jun 3, 2008 Bottle (750ml) shared at ’Biegaman’s Second Annual Saison Tasting’ -- courtesy of biegaman. Pours a clear gold with an average size semi-lasting foamy white head. Aroma of grain and fruit, a bit grassy and with a hint of sourness -- just O.K., I’m not crazy about it. Slightly boozy flavour with grain, a bit of sweet fruit, light grassy hops and an average bitter finish. Medium bodied. Decent but not really to my liking. Rciesla (3500), Exit 15W, New Jersey, USA Jun 2, 2008 Bottle. Pours a golden body with a fluffy white head. Aroma is spicy yeast, farmhouse saison funk. Flavor starts with a strong malt backbone then gives way to the subtlies of the yeast and spiciness. A score for something so readily available. Crosling (1854), Loveland, Colorado, USA May 26, 2008 Light golden color, with a full head of lasting foam. Authentic Belgian smells, with some light fruits, yeast, farmhouse. Flavor has nice balance, with a delicate sweetness and finish. An ale of high quality. garthicus (1215), Toronto, Ontario, Canada May 24, 2008 Thanks Jan! Appearance: Golden yellow, nice thick creamy head. Aroma: Lemon, hops and some orange peel. Flavour: Mild hops, sweet too, some grapefruit in there with a nice fruity finish. Nice edden (927), cow- lumbus, Ohio, USA May 24, 2008 5/24/08: Bottle. Aroma of bread dough with some spice and a hint of lemon. Sun kissed yellow body with a white head. Spotty lace. Flavors include bread dough, pepper, lemon peel and spices - maybe a bit of all spice, paradise seed. Drank while bottling my saison =)
