Location: From my buddy Dave who got it at U-Save in Frostburg, MD.

3.4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 14/20
75 cl bottle. Pale slightly hazy gold pour with a nice loose foamy white head. Lots of citrusy, hoppy aromas a bit of good barnyard funk. Grainy taste with a citric acid finale, quite dry enjoyable taste. Mouthfeel is a wee bit rough but it becomes okay when the beer sits a bit.
3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Bottle from Keller’s IGA. Pours slightly cloudy gold with a small white head. Aroma of orange citrus, yeast, straw, farmhouse, earthy notes, and mild spices. Flavor follows suit, with notes of apricot, apples, grass, sweet malt, and some warming alcohol. Medium bodied, with a citrusy, spicy, yeasty mouthfeel. Very nice saison, and the price is excellent.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 18/20
12oz bottle at Flatbread Burlington. Pours clear yellow with a small head. Nose is nicely yeasty and very fruity and citrusy. Taste is citrusy and quite yeasty. As I go thru, it gets a bit to much alcoholic on the finish. Quite dry. Good beer.
