Jan 8, 2008 (750ml bottle) Purchased at Whole Foods in Seattle for $6.99. Enormous frothy white head with a highly carbonated golden amber body. Looks like a ginger ale and vanilla ice cream float. Nose is great - wild weed aroma with a coriander backing and white pepper. Very yeasty flavour yet is muted by a mild vinegar linger. Sweet lemongrass, tart apples and a tinny head round out the tongue.

Jan 6, 2008 Poured into a Duvel tulip. Golden straw coloured with a massive chunky white head. Nose- fantastic smell of wood and vinegar sourness. Creates a pavlovian reaction in my mouth as I’m drooling to get into this beer. Taste- very subtle brew, citrus sourness, with light pale malts. Woody dryness, but still a juicy tanginess. Wonderfully crafted and amazingly flavourful for <5% beer. Mouthfeel is light bodies, but still has a creamy texture. Drinkability is through the roof. I could drink pail after pail of this stuff. One of my favourite beers.

Jan 4, 2008 12oz gusher. Hazy yellow with a small white head. Nice farmhouse, funk, horse-blanket nose. Very carbonated, lemony, spicy, peppery with the saison style coming through strong. Body is bit thin. Good refreshing summer beer that is a fast drinker. We need these down here in Texas.

Dec 30, 2007 12 ox. Bottle: Beautiful pour of liquid gold with a cloud-like white head. Aroma consists of spice, citrus rind, bread dough and hay. Dry, well carbonated mouth feel. Sour, funked out flavor dominates. Subtle notes of unripened citrus and spice. Not bad considering a style I’m not horribly fond of.

Dec 29, 2007 Oh man, there’s poop in my beer! That was the first thing my brother said when we poured this beer. I like barnyard and all, but this was WAY too much. Good news. It tastes great, and the overwhelming barnyard goes away after a bit, and your left with a nice, American saison.

Dec 28, 2007 Color is golden straw and very hazy. Head is huge, white and pillowy with great retention. Light and effervescent body. Aroma is tart fresh cut green apple. Flavor is the same. I didn’t think it very complex, but very refreshing. It screams for some granny smiths and some sharp cheddar. A very enjoyable beer.
