From notes. First reviewed 10/23/2011. Poured from a 22 oz. bottle into a tulip. Thanks to bauermj for bringing out some Texas beer.
My pour is a hazy golden straw color with a light white foamy head.
A lot of white grape and pear precedes the pale malt, green apple, and some dry rye malt in the nose.
The flavor is sweeter than I would expect in a rye beer or a saison. It starts with dry, crackery pale malt, sweet white grape, pear, green apple, some lemon and pepper.
It starts sweet, although it is tough to identify the flavor to associate the sweetness with. There is a rye dryness that develops over the course of the beer. A lightly tart and bitter finish.
The dry rye flavor and the sweetness work reasonably well together.

2/24/12. On tap at the brewery during RBWG 2012. Hazy dark golden pour, again with a slight green tint. Bold fruity esters dominate stronger than the regular version. Sweet fruity flavor as well with strong winey aspects and plenty of alcohol. Whoa buddy, the abv shows on this puppy... a bit sweet and strong.
