Very last dregs of a 22 oz. bottle, my final note from DLD 2011, at last. Very cloudy, light brown ale, very thin foam. Yes, I’ve got all the bottle’s dregs, but that can be the good part. The smell is of a nicely fruity ale. I can’t find anything wrong with it. A kind of a Brett character, very fruity, sour, and of course yeasty taste.

TheJestersBeer (1703) - SWEDEN - JUN 12, 2013
UPDATED: JUN 16, 2013 750ml bottle. Pours a medium gold, with a white head. Fruity, spicy aroma, orange peel, guava, mango, cedar, caramel, peach. Off-dry, medium bodied, low to mid bitterness, balanced CO2. Fruity taste, peach, mango, quite spicy, wheat, wood (?). Bottled in May 2011, this one has really started going down hill. Quite likely pretty good when fresh. (2013-06-12)

Thanks to @Countbeer for the trade!

Heb deze speciaal bewaard, had het idee dat het wel een goed bier moest wezen
amber/oranje, geel/witte kraag welke vrij snel afvlakt
aroma: floraal, citrus, rood fruit, hmm wat beperkt...
smaken: stevig bittertje, licht zuurtje, stevig gekruid, caramel, tropisch fruit, meloen, guave blijkbaar ;), lichte vanille, gist, kruidig
medium body, zacht in de mond, laag qua co2, afdronk: lang bitter/kruidig/zoetig
tevens iets van wijntonen in de smaak.
goed gebalanceerd, aardig, geen topper

Pyrmir (1453) - Westra Aros, SWEDEN - MAY 17, 2013
Bottle @CBC13. Aroma with loads of fruit, reminding of multivitamin juice. Taste is sweet and fruity, some yeast, sweet and tart. Decent

mikedR (413) - Gilbert, Arizona, USA - MAY 16, 2013
Tropical saison; very nice! Strong Belgian spices and tropical fruits wafting from an off-white topped dirty and cloudy orange pour. Spices are abundant in taste, as is a good amount of sweetness (guava?). Although well carbonated, a hefty mouthfeel. Spiciness continues to dance on your tongue even when there’s nothing there. This is good! ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

M82 (102) - Kansas, USA - MAY 16, 2013
On tap at Peg’s while vacationing in Tampa late summer 2012; excited to see this one roll in just before leaving, common farmhouse appearance, not overtly fruity like some in the style or overly spicy like some farmhouse ales, guava plays a unique smoothing role, creating a silky, highly quaffable, fruity experience with enough complexity to keep me interested
