Jul 14, 2007 750ml bottle. Tulip glass. Pale cloudy yellow with a big head. Aroma was typically of Belgians, yeast and spices. Flavor was dry and spicy and perhaps a bit peppery.

Jul 11, 2007 Unclear gold with off white head. Aroma is complex - sour apple, manuer, vinegar. Sweet & sour fruity & fresh. After a few sips.... very nice!

Jul 6, 2007 Bottle. Orange color with white head. Very faint aroma of citrus. Very sweet tasting. Almost no bitterness. A good Saison but more than a bottle would have been too much to stomach.

Jul 1, 2007 Updated: Jul 31, 2008Re-rate 2008. Now I can better appreciate the complexity of this beauty. Orange with a white head. Very complex aroma of citrus and exotic fruits and a bunch of spices from the wonderful Fantome yeast. Sweet and fruity flavour with a little tartness. Like grapefruit juice with some subtle spices, good sweetness and a touch of alcohol presence.

Jun 29, 2007 Hazy golden poor with lots of small but heavy deposits and a small tanned head. Aromas of grapefruit, rhubarb, avocado, tangerine peelings and a little acid..... Just smelling ths beer makes me thirsty. Definitely weird ... odd mouthfeel. First time i can honestly say i’m unable to detect any bitterness at all. Slightly sweet and very acid. Aromas weirdly reflects nicely the flavors. Nicely added lime and salt? Very awkward yet somewhat enjoyable.

Jun 18, 2007 Big bubbled lasting white head on very hazy orange golden body; Very big apple, pear nose with lots of earthy strawberry, sugared lemon juice, fresh orange juice and tone of very clear exotic guava aromas, very deep, fresh and good; Very fresh apple juice sour body, deep with a very special complex sourness, very little sharp carbonation; Long very, very aroma full finish, again this sugar lemon touch, apricot juice, lots of guava and a very little Orval like brett. Very, very special, almost more like freshly squeezed juice from a thick textured fruit like apricot or guava.

Jun 17, 2007 Updated: Jun 20, 2008750 ml bottle. A very hazy deep orange beer with a small and disappearing white head. The aroma is inviting with its light sourness and the balance between malt, yeast and hops. Notes of flowers, grass, citrus, hay and light peppery hints. The flavour has the same balanced acidity of the aroma and a very pronounced fruitiness (citiric and tropical fruits), and grass, flowers, hay from the hops plus some peppery spiciness. Medium body, lively carbonation, very dry long finish with medium bitterness: The alcohol is well hidden. Fantastic complexity, very quenching with great drinkability: one of my favourite beer from one of my favourite breweries.
