2011-09-24. Hazy golden body with a large fluffy white head and lace. 4+ Flavour is relatively mild, sweet pale malt, light grainy touches, light funk throughout threatens to take a more prominent role but never quite does, very light peppery spice. 7+ Modest aroma, mild sweet dusty malt, pale malt, very mild floral notes and pepper/spice. 7+ Smooth average plus palate. 3+ On tap at Volo, Toronto

A story of corriander. Very peppery odour. Yellow with little head. So-so drinkable.

On tap at DDC. Very slightly hazy gold pour with white head. Aroma is quite lemony, almost like citra hops, classic saison yeast/belgian farmhouse ale aromas, grain. Very hoppy flavor, nice and bitter, quite a bit of yeasty character, herbal, old hay flavors also present. The palate is alright, maybe this beer’s weakest point though, not quite dry enough for the style. Decent saison.

Draught at Dieu du Ciel, Montreal. Golden, hazy, small to average and mostly diminishing head. Moderate, malty - lightly wheaty and lightly sweetish aroma, some fruitiness and spiciness (coriander), some citrus and grassy hoppyness. Body is medium, malty - lightly wheaty and lightly sweetish flavor, faint fruitiness and some spiciness, some citrus and hoppyness. Finish is average, malty and dryish, sharp spiciness (coriander), some citrus with some hoppyness. Saison with bit too sharp spiciness.

On tap at DDC 13th aniv party.
Aroma sweet fruity with creamy hints, hint of raspberry and earth.
Appearance bright pale amber with medium slightly fizzy top.
Flavor and Palate : Tart, medium light in body. Sweet sourness with citrus. Soft in character. Fine fruity ending.

Verre de 20 oz, au brewpub de Montréal. Arômes de levure rustique rappelant le pain frais et le foin. Touche de céréales. Robe blonde et trouble, belle mousse qui tient bien et effervescence moyenne. En bouche, la levure est bien présente, apportant des notes épicées et de pain frais. La bière est relativement ronde pour le style, et montre un beau côté de céréales biscuitées. Finale très légèrement amère et moyennement sèche (peut-être pas assez à mon goût). Une belle bière, à mi-chemin entre une belge blonde classique et une saison.

12 ounce sample at the brewpub. Aroma is initially grassy, lightly piney, and hoppy. Has some sticky yeast esters present with a floral bouquet. Modestly hazy golden body with a smallish white head. Starts a bit chewy with lots of roasted malts--too many. Some tannins are also in there with yeast esters in the form of bananas. This also has a bit of a weird astringency. Finishes with lots of huskiness and more over the top roastiness. Lacks the hop crispness I look for in a saison.

on tap at Dieu du Ciel. served in a Tulip glass, this beer pours a clear gold with a creamy white head that left beautiful lacing. the aroma is loaded with spices and yeast. taste is the same but with a burnt caramel flavour that seems to linger. not a bad beer by any means, but not one of my favourites from this brewery. it’s also worth noting that at the brewpub, this beer is listed as 7.8% ABV.
