T- Like it smells. Rich and spicy with a wonderful complexity. Notes of honey and coriander. Strong flavors but not overpowering.
M - Full and creamy with a lingering finish and lively carbonation.
D- This is an excellent saison and will definitely be in my cellar from now on. Finished the bomber over a couple of hours and enjoyed this one to the last sip.

1 AROMA 2/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 2/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 3/20
My first reaction: Nail polish remover. I could have sworn the waitress had swapped my beer with acetone. It’s spicy and tangy and sharp and disgusting. It lingers in the back of the throat. The only good thing about this brew was that I could justify ordering a different beer to get the wretched taste out of my mouth.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
My first venture into this style and it was a good one. Rich golden color, a bit hazy with a minimal white head. Aromas of zesty fruit, cinnamon, and floral notes. The taste follows the nose pretty well: a spicy taste with hints of oranges. Thick mouth feel, a bit oily even. Very tasty, I look forward to try more saisons in the future.

The aroma is sweet, The color is golden, the head frothy. The taste is a light sweetness. The body is light to medium, the texture creamy, the carbonation soft and the finish medium.
3.9 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
What better way to celebrate a completed day of yardwork than with God’s gift to Belgian farmers? I poured a 12 oz bottle into my tulip, raising a large creamy head that subsided to a lingering pinky width and left notable lacing in the glass. As the head suggests, this is delightfully smooth and silky going down. Both the aroma and flavor are redolent of hay, spice, and warm butter. All of these features characterize the style, making this a fine American example of one of Europe’s great ales.
