Pour is yellowish orange and fizzy with a small white head. Aroma is yeast and grass, maybe a little wheat. At first I didn’t like the flavor, but it got better as it warmed. Wheat, lemons, grass in the flavor. Kind of thin. Ok.

On tap at The Common Table.
The beer pours a gold-amber color with a medium-sized white head. The aroma has a lot of wheat in it, with some grass from the hops and also some Belgian yeast notes.
The flavor is similar. I get a lot of pepper from the yeast, as well as a little bit of orange citrus and a lot of wheat. There is some hop flavor but not any bitterness.
Medium mouthfeel and medium carbonation.

Draught at Lagunitas Brewery.
Rather pale gold with foamy lace. Yeasty fruit aroma, a bit raw. Dry flavor—malty and bready, with wheat, yeasty, with an ok hoppy finish. An ok saison, but the yeast weighs it down. Nicely dry, though.
