4.4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 19/20
My favorite saison; one of the few beers I buy more than once. Cloudy yellow pour with a long-lasting white head. Mouthfeel is considerable, and surprisingly not as carbonated. Flavor is Belgian-style malty, with sweetness and spiciness perfectly balanced. And that's what makes this beer beautiful. If you want, you can pick out the individual flavor components, but I prefer to let their synergistic melody take over in what to me is an epic saison.

3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Pours golden yellow with moderate white frothy top. Aroma is yeasty, straw grains with a small farmy in the backend. Taste is bready grains, slight yeast and the want for more farmy and wet blanket but am left yearning.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Flavor is sagey and piney to me on tap, though there are hints of the pepper and grains, nice saison yeast finish.
3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottle- pours cloudy golden, frothy bright white head head with lacing on the glass. Wheat, ginger, Farmhouse yeast, lemon and wheatgrass on the nose. Bread malts, wheat, citrus hop and saison yeast tartness definitely help this beer feel lighter and tart on the finish. This is how farmhouse Saisons should be. Nice Summer beer for a warm day.
