4.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 19/20
S: Blows out whith lots of grains and farm bretty notes, there is also lemons with sharp smell (pee) which was unpleasent and really one of few things I didnt enjoy about this beer, but it fades after a while, and then just add some spices to the smell. Strong smell overall. P: A golden haze with a big white haze, this looks like mango juice towards the end. T: I found this rather difficult, there is banyard tartness upfront, sour lemons, coriande, and some spices, its just great. M:Light and puckery with great carbonation. O: A great fine saison, the lemons and spices made this awsome, I was sad driking the last drops.

Bottle at Mikkeller & Friends. I remember when I had my first saison, it was a Fantome quite long ago. I was blown away be it´s blance and complexity. This is better, it´s incredibly true to the style and balanced. Loads of outhouse, farm, grass, yeast and funk in this one. There is massive amount of fruits, some mango, grape, citrus, but very subtle and balanced. It´s quite refreshing but is demanding a lot from your sences. Fantastic stuff!
