Pours a cloudy orange brown with a puffy tan head. Barnyard aroma with some subtle malty notes. Body is semi-tart, with good thickness and bready qualities. The finish is dry and earthy. Overall, a good example of the style and quite drinkable.

Pale, hazy gold. Slight white head. Strangely behaving yeast (floats!). Herbal nose, and aroma of (Belgian) vegetable deepfrying oil. Yeasty, malt, grain. Overly bitter taste – dandelion-flavour, definitely, “bitter salad”, not hoppy. Malty underbuild. Medium bodied. Good carbonation. Fiery bitter from main taste is medium longlasting, no new aftertaste. Dany P. has used dandelion (pissenlit) often in his beers. I’m not a fan of this addition, and I’m afraid it shows in the rating. A “Saison” of 8% ABV, indeed!

Taste of corn and flour tortillas hits me really hard up front. Aroma of cannibas and vegetables... primarily cabbage. Light and slightly thin, it had a huge, bright bubbly feel to it, with some flavors of ginger and bread. Have to be honest and say that I don't care for the vegetable flavor... not my thing. Thanks to Mike for sharing this.
