gnoff (6374) - Mölndal, - FEB 14, 2013
Draught at Tre Små Rum, Göteborg, on February 13, 2013.
Hazy to cloudy dark copper to brown color, dense tan head. Light acidic, spicy, hay, herbal, somewhat lactic scent. Sweet, alcohol, herbal, bitter, green flower stems/stalks taste. Bitter floral aftertaste. Warming alcohol. Spritzy mouthfeel, medium bitterness.
Decent, though a bit too evident alcohol, and also the bitterness and sort of green floral notes does not go super well with my taste.

Saison no es de mis estilos favoritos, pero tengo que reconocer que esta me ha gustado bastante. Toques tostados, buen cuerpo. Una cerveza con caracter y que se le nota el alcohol. Para beber con calma. Los lupulos, sin destacar, le quedan bastante bien. Se puede repetir.

Vignale (1402) - Malmö, SWEDEN - MAY 30, 2013
Flaska från beernavigator. Bärnstensfärgad, klar, högt kompakt aprikosbeige som sakta lägger sig. Söt fruktig doft av aprikoser, persika, torkade päron, honung, nektar. Smaken är söt, tung, fruktig, jag tänker på nektar någonstans mellan söt blomdoft och söt frukt. Liten beska, rena smaker, väl dold alkohol. Riktigt god.

thebeertourist (4311) - Oslo, NORWAY - MAY 21, 2013
Bottle at ’t Arendsnest. Hazy burgundy, rich head. Caramel, oranges, biscuit. Quite hoppy, enough to offset the caramel sweetness. Wonderfully complex without being extreme. Mastercraft.

tom10101 (1166) - Quebec, CANADA - MAY 19, 2013
Bottle (330 ml). Bottled on July 12th 2012. Extra from kbudd19, thanks! Amber with a medium fully lasting off-white head and some lacing. Aroma is of citrus, malt, caramel, Saison yeast, fruits and slight spices. Taste is moderately sweet with malt, caramel, citrus spices, fruits and slight alcohol. Medium body. Oily mouthfeel.Good Saison. Quite complex. My only issues with this one is that the beer is a tad too sweet and that mouthfeel could be dryer.

suprchunk (1447) - Heinsberg, GERMANY - MAY 16, 2013
Amber pour. Big off-white head. Big hop aroma. Fresh clipped grass ang citrus. Nice malt and hop flavor. This beer is pretty good. The only issue is a slight off flavor. But I won't complain. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Bottle from ABC Beers, Den Haag. Poured a cloudy medium amber with a bubbly white head. The aroma is big citrus fruit and a little rich alcohol. The flavour is medium bitter, smooth slightly fruity, with some smooth malty fruit on the palate and in the aftertaste.
