aubreya (676), Chapel Hill, North Carolina, USA Apr 21, 2008 The color was cloudy yellow. The head was creamy, thin, and white. The aroma was lemon-grass, citris, sour, and musty. The flavor was the same. the palate was thin-bodied. The finish was tart. emacgee (1859), Chapel Hill, North Carolina, USA Apr 21, 2008 Pours a nice soft hazy gold with a one finger white head. The aroma was fruity, smelled starfruit, musty Brett aroma, muscadine grapes, a little grassy. The flavor is light, sweet, tart, bretty, lemongrass, fruity, a little funky, slightly grassy. The 8% is well hidden and the mouthfeel is nice, a little tart and smooth carbonation. Finishes sweet and a little dry. The Etruscan (304), Tuscany, Italy Apr 21, 2008 Weak white head. Cloudy orange colour. Aroma is malty, fruity with apricots and citrus notes. Flavor is fruity too with orange jam and light sour tones, ending in a sweet fruity finish. Medium bodied. sfhodense (554), Odense NØ, Denmark Apr 17, 2008 Bottle. Cloudy golden beer with white head. Aroma is fruity. Flavour is apple, pineapple and a bit spicy. Very refreshing (tasted after a porter/stout tasting). CanIHave4Beers (831), Des Moines, Iowa, USA Apr 13, 2008 Updated: Apr 28, 2009My third 3.9 in a row!!!!!!!!!!!!! haha Anyway, I liked this beer very much. A nice looking beer with a great big head. Smell is lightly funky, and a little unforgivably skunky. The flavor is spicy, and sharply bitter, with just a little funk. The beer has a mouth feel very similar to champagne. BuckeyeSammy (454), Cleveland, Ohio, USA Apr 12, 2008 Aroma is tart, lightly fruit.. pear? Slightly acidic. Cloudy golden color, thin light head, Serious dark sediment in the last pour. Decent lacing. Great carbonation. Flavor has light fruits in it, grape or pear? Lightly spiced. Another great saison from Fantome. BeerZack (116), Austin, Texas, USA Apr 12, 2008 Palest of orange color, cloudy with bubbly white head.
Intoxicating fruity perfumes began to fill the air immediately as I popped the cork on this one. Smells of strawberry, raspberry, tart cherry, tangerine, sweet tarts, juicy fruity deliciousness.
Taste is like a milder version of the nose. It is hard to believe that theres not fruit added to this beer, the fruit impression is so strong. Smell is strongly strawberry or cherry but the flavors I get are more orange or lemony sweet tarts. Almost sour! Gooood.
Mildly acidic, light-moderate feel with low carbonation. This beer is immensely drinkable and thoroughly enjoyable. SHIG (2012), Aviano, Italy Apr 11, 2008 Bottle: Poured a clear to orange depending on the sediment, has a thin head. Aroma is musty barn yard like with some fruit berry. The taste continues with the fruit, but also has that refreshing yeast and spice.
