Sample at San Diego Brewing Company. Pours a clear dark amber color with a thin beige head that recedes steadily. Spotty lacing. Aroma of yeast, malt and light peppery hops. Medium-bodied and clean with flavors of yeast, fruit and spices. Sweet caramel malt undertones as well. The finish is spiced with a fruity aftertaste. Pretty good overall.

On tap at SD Brewing Company; poured a really nice reddish color. Aroma was hoppier than expected with a goo amount of caramel malt balance. Flavor wasn’t quite as hoppy, which was a bit surprising based on the aroma. Flavor was good and well balanced. Caramel and toasted malt with some vanillal and spices. A really good version for the style.

Light amber in color. Aroma is sweet and spicy. Flavor is more sweet yeast and spice, mild fruit with a bitter/sour aspect as well. I have had better saisons, and I like some of their other beers alot more, but all in all, not bad.
