poured this from bottle in a bordeaux glass. Poured a light orange color with a foamy head the nose is a bit muted but still has nice aromas of citrus’, floral tones, and bits of ginger spice really good medium feel. Nice depth with very good citrus based flavors This was a very nice saison. The feel is really good and makes up for the muted aromas a bit

Bottle at Euston Tap. Light blond with frothy white head. Aroma is floral and bubble gum sweet, with fruitiness, maybe mango. Soft in the mouth with a very subtle bitter finish with a bit of biscuit sweetness. Very nice and refreshing.
