MaxxDaddy (302) - Hoboken, New Jersey, USA - JUN 7, 2009
Bottle. Pours hazy gold with bubbly white head; light lacing. Aroma of fruit, cloves, and bread. Taste of bread, spices, some sweetness. Really not much going on with this one. A bit light on the palate and some breadiness in the finish.

nate2g (1548) - London, Greater London, ENGLAND - JUN 4, 2009
Bottle. Pours an unclear orange with a medium white head and OK lacing. The aroma is citrus, clove, orange peel and yeasty phenols. The flavour is spice, citrus and bready yeastiness. Some tartness in the mouthfeel though good carbonation. A refreshingly dry finish. It’s an OK saison just a little subtle for my palate.

bluevegie (2854) - Perth, AUSTRALIA - JUN 1, 2009
Hazy pale golden body with a short white head. Notes of lemon and some spice on the aroma. Soft pepper in the taste also wheat notes with not too much else. An easy drinking Saison but thats all.

vyvvy (2798) - Florissant, Missouri, USA - MAY 25, 2009
Pours hazy blond with a very translucent bubbly head. The aroma has lemony tartness, some spice, grainy malt and Belgian yeast. Medium body that’s thin for the style with very mild carbonation. The flavor starts like the aroma with a bit more funkiness. The finish has more graininess and some smooth citrus. Interesting beer.

Bottle. Hazy orange beer. Citric and Lemon. A very nice beer, not at all what I was expecting for a Saison.
