I think JP hit the nail on the head with what a Saison should taste like, I’m just not a fan of the style. Lemon characteristics, a little peel, cloves, grapefruit, spicy, carbonated, light. Drinkability: A little too tarty for the party. Rebuy: Undecided. #131 on 06102009, DG. phaleslu (463), Cincinnati, Ohio, USA

Pours a hazy orange-gold with a large rocky white head. Aroma of bread, straw, grass, farmhouse funk, malt, spices, light citrus. Flavor follows suit, and is sweet, spicy, and slightly tart. Crisp and refreshing, with a dry finish. Really interesting saison. shawnm213 (914), South Bend, Indiana, USA

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Sep 19, 2009 Thanks to my inlaws for bringing this back from Montana for me. Pours a cloudy bright gold with a lively, finely bubbled head. Immediately after the pour there is a lovely perfumey lemony aroma. As the head settles and the beer breathes, more yeast and spices come forward, along with a little sour funk. The palate is light and dry, with flavours of lemon, dusty yeast, spices, and a woody tartness that is not quite truly sour. Tasty and refreshing. yobdoog (1431), Woodridge NY, New York, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Sep 18, 2009 Golden color fluffy head. Very effervescent. Aroma has spice, yeast, green grass, and some sweetness. Flavor is grassy, spice and some citrus. Finishes dry. dmschefke (371), Eastpointe, Michigan, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Sep 17, 2009 Pours a pale hazy yellow gold with medium white head, decent lacing. Aroma decent of hops, yeast, spices, light malt, and some herbal notes. Flavor matches well and has the right amount of tartness without dominating, making for a wonderfully refreshing brew. Another great one from JP. tmoreau (555), Lombard, Illinois, USA
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Sep 17, 2009 At Lunar Brewing Co. on tap so the high carbonation and usual activity found with the bottles was a little more under control. Poured a hazy, straw hue with a lasting, creamy, white head and strands and streaks of lacing. The aroma was some lemon Alka Seltzer Plus, light floral notes, and yeasty funk. The flavor was a more pleasant grassy lemon, with spice, soft malt, and peppery dryness. Once past the somewhat expected but still bizarre nose, I found it a refreshing, quality Saison
