The appearance is gold, white head. The flavor is a toasted malt, clove, other spices, and it has a spicy finish. Thin to medium mouthfeel. Not bad, taste better than it smells. carruthm (1125), Seattle, Washington, USA

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Apr 11, 2009 Draft at Kuma’s Corner. I actually thought at first it was Hop Stoopid again, but unfortunately it wasn’t. Pours a clear pale yellow with a sticky head. Nose is spicy and yeasty with a light graininess. Bananas dominate, followed by some citrus as well. Taste is pretty straight forward simple saison, a lot like Cynic. Light and easy to drink. Okay. jstraw (758), Chicago, Illinois, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Mar 20, 2009 Draft at Jerry’s. Clear golden with big, foamy white head / Nose of orange peel and spice / Light to medium body, low carbonation, dry, with good balance and finish / Flavors of grain, orange peel, bubblegum, cloves, and coriander / Very good, but lacking the Belgian body to compliment the bold fruit and spice flavors. More like a cross between a pils and a wit. DocLock (4648), Lower Pottsgrove, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Mar 10, 2009 Pours hazy deep gold with 1-finger well retained off-white head. Nose is earthy, with honey, apricot, pale malt, not much funk noted. Flavor is pale malt, honey, some dull earthy florals, and finishing tannic British bitter/mild flavor notes. Not well balanced, nor dry, floral, spicy, or funky enough to pique my interest. Not a great saison.
