May 11, 2008 Honestly, this has a pretty insipid yellow colour. Lightly fruitiy/estery on the nose and the malts are really husky. Kind of creamy/underfermented taste, a big no-no in this style. Light spice and ester but it’s too little too late...I really hated this.

Apr 21, 2008 Draught. The sample I had at the brewery was called " SUNSET Saison". If this is a different one, a Ca. admin ought to shift this to a new entry Good, very dense white head, fed by good carbonation in golden beer. Weird, part spicy, part mashtemperature-on-the-ramp aroma; bit fruity-yeasty. Same impression: yeast-fruity, and to "hot". Maybe a tad of wheat? Bit aggressive MF, carbonation imposing. Temperature control, please. Saison is not cooked in the fermenters, at least not in Belgium.

Mar 30, 2008 On tap at Beachwood and finally getting around to rating this. Light and tasty. It has the farmy flavours of other saisons, but does not give them so much of the center stage.

Feb 27, 2008 Tap @ O’Briens. Poured a hazy yellow with a small white head. Light yeasty spice and bubble gum in the aroma. Light malt with mild spice. Light to medium bodied. .
