Pothuiske, maastricht (NL) ; Amber - brown coloured beer with a turbid appearance and a coarse foam that rapidly diminishes. The aroma is malty and very strong caramel. Too strong in my opinion. The taste dominantly sweet with a hint of acid and some bitterness in the aftertaste. In my opinion too much sweetness and too less hoparoma for a Saison

Bottle; Pothuiske Maastricht. Amber colored beer. Nice malty sweet flavor ending in a soft bitter and yeasty aftertaste with notes of sourness.

On tap at Arendsnest. Murky amber body with white head. Nose was almost nothing, very hard to discern. Taste of fruits - some cherry. Also malty, with caramel flavours. Very smooth. A bit watery. With spicy finish.

From tap at ’t Arendsnest. Pours clear and golden orange with a small off-white head. Mild malty and yeasty aroma. Smooth saison yeasty base flavour with a subdued malt presence. Mild breadish touch into the finish. Smooth yeasty and fruity lasting impression.

On tap at ’t Arendsnest. Hazy dark amber brown colour, creamy off white head. Aroma of yeast, spices, some fruits and a lot of malts. Flavour is rather sweet, spicy, malty and a little fruity. Medium bodied, bittersweet finish. Not really what you expect from a saison, but an enjoyable beer though.
