500 ml bottle shared by Tmoney99. Pours a hazy orange amber color with a small white head. The aroma is bready, dry, and spicy, with hints od sweetness and fruit. The flavor has a base of caramel/toffee malt, but is more about the orange peel, citrus, spices, and herbs. The flavor tends to fade in the finish somewhat. Medium body, dry, bitter finish. This is solid, but I would reach for other saisons before this one.

500ml Bottle - Hazy golden in colour. Fruity and soapy aroma with peach and apricot. Delicious fruity and hoppy taste with some soapy notes accompanied by tea, lemon, peach and apricot. Superb.

changeup45 (1314) - Mount Dora, Florida, USA - JAN 11, 2009
This pours a murky orange color with a less than impressive head and hardly any retention. The aroma is lemons, coriander and bananas. Taste is much of the same assortment of fruits but not a whole lot of spice, no funk, just kind of blah and lacking a little zip. Overall this beer is fine but probably no better than a decent session beer on a warm day

MI2CA (1340) - Noblesville, Indiana, USA - JAN 9, 2009
500ml - Aroma is doughy yeast, coriander, sweet and spicy with subtle hops. Pours transparent gold with a small head and good lacing. Flavor is mostly dough with straw, coriander, grassy hops and not much else. Rather mild. Palate is smooth, creamy and clean. Very drinkable but nothing special.

Brouwser (119) - gatineau, Quebec, CANADA - JAN 3, 2009
Biere orange, avec un bon voile. Peu ou pas de col. Parfum avec des notes herbeuses, levures, agrumes. Saveur herbeuse, verte, de levure. Semble parfois savonneuse. Le palais est calme. Un produit de Nogne un peu moins intéressant que ceux deja essaye.

Bottle: Pours a hazy gold with a small white head. The aroma is coriander and nutmeg. The flavor is light with bready notes and a spicy finish but not much else. The palate is well balanced on this beer. It lingers appropriately. This is a nice beer, no big detraction but would buy Saison Dupont any day.

Rciesla (5500) - Exit 15W, New Jersey, USA - DEC 29, 2008
Bottle. Pours a golden orange body with a white head 2 fingers thick. Starts with a spicy yeast, light coriander flavor. Bready with a light woodiness. okay.

KAggie97 (3170) - Ugly, Hot, and Humid Spring, Texas, USA - DEC 22, 2008
Bottle from GodOfThunder. Thanks! Pours a weak yellow with an aroma of weak straw and euniched hops. Flavor is melted pennies with a pinch of hay. Average mouthfeel. Leave the Saisons to the peeps in Belgium.
