Thanks to Erin for lugging this one back from Atlanta for me!
Pours a glowing, cloudy, bright, light orange color. Just a sudsy sparse head remains after a few seconds. Smell is coriander, spices, along with bright and wheaty and lightly citrusy leanings.
Taste is lightly spiced with similar flavors as in the smell, along with an interesting and unexpected, but welcomed light hop presence and a lightly wheaty flavor as well. Thin to medium bodied with average carbonation. Not too familiar with the style, but I enjoyed this one.

Amber with a low head. The aroma is spicy with fruity esters, and the flavours have a lot herbs in them making it both sweet and a bit dry towards the ending.

UPDATED: JUN 5, 2008 Bottled. Poured clear bright golden with a creamy cap of white head. The aroma picked up soft lemon zest and bready notes upfront with peppery Belgian yeast in the background.. spicy lemon zest pops through with warmth. The flavor had bready and pale malts at the core with a delightful sour lemon and black pepper presence throughout.. simple, but well-executed and very refreshing. Light-medium bodied with lower carbonation.. sour, slightly funky, and entirely refreshing. Good one! 7 4 7 4 15
Sampled again with different thoughts but the same overall score.
Poured hazy medium golden with a short cap of white head. The aroma was refreshing and funky with notes of cheese, foot, lighter fruits, and lemon zest.. came together very well. The flavor had peppery spices over medium-skinned fruits.. funkier cheese toward the back.. finished with refreshing fruit and lemon zest. Spicy and sweet on the palate with nice balance.. refreshing finish.

UPDATED: MAR 25, 2008 Thanks to zeke626 for sharing. Cloudy orange/yellow, moderate amount of white foam. Not a typical saison, more like a dry hefeweizen. There was wheat and malt in the aroma. Almost no barnyard funk. It had a malty, citrusy bite. The hops were almost non-existent. Mildly acidic. It was very refreshing!

Bottle, pours a cloudy, yellow-orange body with a thin, white head. Aroma of wheat, malt, and a slight hint of orange. Medium-bodied with smooth mouthfeel and a slight fizziness. Tastes a lot like a hefeweizen with flavors of wheat, grain, and malts. Citrus bite and aftertaste.

bottle from Liar’s club. Hazy yellow with a fizzy white head. Sweet honey aroma. Sweet honey and floral taste but with a slightly soapy over hopped taste.
