Pour is hazy golden with a lot of sediment in suspension. Aroma is bitter with some sweet fruit, malt, yeast, and some slight alcohol. Flavor is a little sour with some slight bitterness as well as sweet fruit and light malt characters. There is a good amount of spice as well in this brew. Real tasty and worth the purchase.

[1459-20080531] 750mL bottle. Saison-esque sour old yeast aroma. Hazy, light orange grey body with a foamy medium-lasting off-white head. Sweet and yeasty spice flavour has a sour finish. Medium body. Lovely composition.

This beers reminds me of a summer day. Aroma of grass, dry hay, barn, spice. Tastes of hay, pepper, lemon and vanilla. A really great saison.

I want to have this beer’s babies. I’m currently basking in the glory of $14 bottles of this stuff and life is pretty bloody good. Despite its size there’s nothing too obvious about it, but there’s lemony hops, peppery yeast, vanilla ice cream malt and some gin-like alcohol warmth, though it really is ridiculously easy to drink for its size - I’d say it appears noticeably less boozy than the Moinettes. Very hoppy in an extremely low key way, if that’s possible. Everything it beautifully rounded, everything is in place, and it tastes as good as I recall it from Belgium. Love it. Even better than Saison Dupont.

750ml bottle from BevMo Carmel Mountain. Pour is a hazy gold with a nice white head. Aroma is spicy and tart with sweet malt, citrus, lemon, pepper, and fruit. Flavors of yeast, citrusy fruit, lemon tart, funk, and alcohol.

Bright hazy light orange with lovely bubbly white head. Nose is dough, yeast, slight woody sour notes, and some bitter citrus and white pepper. A little musty/dusty in a good way. Crisp, spicy finish. Lovely, lovely saison.

On tap at Kulminator, Antwerpen. Pours hazy golden with a good looking bubbly head. Spicy and yeasty aroma. Malty aroma with citrus and spices. Refreshing but not as dry as expected.
