KAggie97 (2406), Ugly, Hot, and Humid Spring, Texas, USA Dec 12, 2008 Bottle. Pours deep cheddar orange with a fluffy white head and an aroma of zesty tropical lemon peel, lime, and soda water. Ubersour lemon grapefruit flavor with hay chunks and sparkling mineral water. Average mouthfeel. A bit too heavy on the mineral water side. I would prefer the sour to shine more. Rciesla (3510), Exit 15W, New Jersey, USA Dec 12, 2008 Bottle. Pours a golden body with a white 2 finger head. Zesty yeast spices pepper, citrus, lemon and a lightly acidic, herbal hoppiness. Brett with a dry leather finish. faroeviking (6024), Republica Vikingo de las, Faroe Islands Dec 10, 2008 Botella. Courtesy of Pinball. Hazy golden with a big white steady head. Very nice fresh ripe fruity, bit spiced, ueasty aroma. Very good filling mouthfeel. The flavour is soft and fruity with some spice, good hoppiness and some citrus. Nice. JensenTaster (1585), Denmark Dec 9, 2008 on bottle. slightly hazy orange, beige head. Very inviting aroma; sour hay, dirt, yeasts. Flat oon the taste tho´. Gets acidic and stingy after a while and started to remind me of rotten mash. Finishes rather slow and waterish. Pinball (2693), Allerød, Denmark Dec 8, 2008 appears cloudy, nice white head. aroma is fruity, with some hops, pine, fresh raspberries. flavor is very fruity and quite hoppy. fruitiness is citrus and læemon, fruityness part reminds me of hoeggarden, beer is more like an ale. refreshing. jbuzz (658), South Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA Dec 1, 2008 A very nice Saison. Very carbonated, Aromas of sour and citrus, slightly grassy taaste. Jine (889), Nutley, New Jersey, USA Nov 30, 2008 Bottle. I love saisons. I love when saisons are good. This fulfills both. Plus a Jack Russell doggie on the bottle. Going to run out and grab another (bunch) of these. RIXbeer (102), USA Nov 28, 2008 Pours a lightly cloudy, yellowish with a hint of orange in color like the setting sun today (tomorrow will be brisker than today but still warm). slightly more than a quarter inch of white fluffy head. Small, fast moving carbonation but not soda pop fast. Smell that BRETT! Funky like a farm. Reminds me of the smell of horses on the farm on a wet day. A mustier smell than just being horse-blanket. A little lighter than I expected from a saison but still good. Hints of orange peel but very faint. More coriander than anything else but very faint. There’s no real pop in my mouth but that’s ok. It’s an easy going, light saison. A really good session saison. One of the great things about this beer is how easy it is to drink, and drink, and drink. Light enough in alcohol but not to light. A little light in spiciness for my liking but still really good. This beer will be the one I pick up if I want to have a bunch of beers on a warm or hot day! Not as good as a Hennepin but this beer stands up on its’ own for what it is. A great session saison!
