Refrigerated 75 cl bottle poured into a weizen glass. Pours hazy pale golden with small fluffy head which dissapates quickly. Little big bubble lacing, light body, medium/low carbonation, and really nice floral aroma. Taste is long dry crisp hops. I would call this a saison and I expected more.
3.9 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20 bartlebier (460) - Baden-Württemberg, GERMANY - APR 29, 2013
75cl bottle opened as revanche for their last-minute cancellation @ZBF 2013 - Elegant and somewhat mysterious looking dark label that not nearly betrays a summer ale this refreshing. Pours a milky and bit watery straw yellow with short head. Fresh citrus nose with undefineable exotic and wit yeast undertones. Very light palate, tastes cleaner than other wits due to spices/oranges replaced by (mildly dosed) US hops (Yakima Chief Simcoe, anyone?). Imagine a Blanche de Namur as an entry level saison, thirst quenching and with unnoticeable 6 abv. -

Bottle shared by Thorpe429. Thanks Mike.
The beer is light yellow and fairly hazy with a small white head. The aroma is hop forward with floral and herbal notes. Good flavor, with a blend of hop, herbal, and floral notes. Light bodied with low carbonation. The beer could use a bit more carbonation to enhance the feel and support the overall flavor. Overall, this was drinkable and enjoyable. Easy to get through a snifter of this. Could use some minor improvements and tweaks. Pretty good.
