Wow, what a fabulous beer! Served at proper temperature. Poured with a good sized, white, foamy, frothy head that lasts a while and a bit of lace. Color is a clear medium yellow. Aroma is yeast, fresh hop that smells like weed, malt, grain, fruit and a bit of citrus. Flavor is similar but with the hop tasting only like fresh hop; good pungency which is true to style and a little sweetness in there to balance it all. Body is perfect mouth filling and almost champagne carbonation. Finish is like flavor and short except for the great burps! Wish I had more to make it a session. This is superb!

Great saison! Funky farmhouse beer with a nice straw color, thick white head. Hopped with Sorachi Ace hops, lots of lemon.

UPDATED: FEB 8, 2012 Bottle from systembolaget Uddevalla, Sweden. Hazy yellow colour with a white head. Spicy and citric aroma. What a nice and well blended flavour. Moderate sweet, hoppy, citric and notes of some spices

An excellent Saison, perhaps the best American version of its style (Ommegang Hennepin is also great). If you love the Saison style, this is a can’t-miss beer, inferior probably only to the best of Dupont. Highly recommended.

I got this from the Growler Bar at Stony Brook Beverage. It was a tasty treat! It poured golden yellow, with a medium white head. The pleasant aroma made me think it was going to give me hoppy bite, but in turn was very mellow malty taste with a hint of lemon and other sweet fruits. Very easy to consume, was a great craft from Garret Oliver!

Elegantly packaged 750 ml corked and caged brown bottle. It pours an elegant clear yellow/gold with a billowing bright white head. It looks clean for the style, but it does look magnificent. The smell is a bouquet of springy fruit flavors. The hops give a huge lemony scent off to go along with the peachy, apricoty, spicy saison yeast. It has a touch of sugar in there too, smells like a summer breeze. This one has such a fruity flavor. Apricot, orange, lemon, maybe some melon, it is pure light fruity goodness. The malts here are also dynamite, they accent the yeast to perfection. There is a subtle bitterness but not overpowering that make sit even more of a refresher. With more tastes I’m getting some candied mango int eh flavor. The yeasty spice complements the fruit flavors, especially the peach exceptionally. They did this one right. It seems like American craft brewers have learned to perfect the Saison, I was enthralled by Sofie, this one takes my enthrallment to a whole new level.

Love this saison...terrific lemongrass finish. Probably my fav from GABF ’10. Light, foamy head a sure result of the champagne yeast. Crisp, fresh finish with terrific mouthfeel from the carbonation. Happy just thinking about it...
