2.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Bottle from Hi Time Wines. Pours a frothy 1-inch off-white head over a golden body containing champagne-like bubbles that yearn for freedom. Nose is wheat, crusted white bread, and dry yeast. Flavors are similar with a strange aftertaste that I can’t quite identify. Finishes slightly dry. Medium carbonation and thin-bodied. Nothing interesting here; somewhat unsatisfying, yet mildly refreshing.

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.

3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
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.
