taste of spring, very fizzy, lots of wheat. Hay, and apples, too. Barnyards and blankets. Very refreshing, yet very warming. A great beer to share with the family. I definitely will buy more. Bottl;e from Sunset Corners, Miami, Florida.

A light citrus fruit aroma with earthy notes. Pours out a light gold with a persistent small bright white head. The more pungent yeast aroma is a constant through the aroma and flavor. Body is light and smooth with more sour citrus notes. The earthy yeast leaves a unique flavor on the palate.

Pours a hazy gold with a large head that fades to thin lacing. Smells of yeast with faint notes of citrus and spice. Taste is pleasant with mild fruit followed by a slightly bitter hop finish. A silky mouthfeel is broken up a bit by the carbonation. Very enjoyable.

Looks and tastes more like a wheat beer than a saison. Not too different from a Hoegaarden. Light hazy golden color with little head. Some spice and cloves and yeast flavors present, with a bit of a bite to the finish. A very enjoyable beer.
3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20 dagimp (416) - Philly, Pennsylvania, USA - OCT 29, 2009
From a 12 oz bottle into a snifter. Pours a golden haze with an inch of head and no lacing. Smells like yeast and some cloves. Taste is smooth and yeasty. Banana notes and cloves are present and well blended. A good drinking saison that goes down smooth and tasty. A bit expensive but it’s of very good quality.
4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20 RickTStiles (504) - Rochester, New York, USA - OCT 28, 2009
UPDATED: MAR 3, 2010 An old favorite! Thought I would try it again from a critical perspective. 12oz Bottle poured into trappist glass. Pours hazy golden with a floral bouquet. Thick frothy head. Nose is warm spices which linger through the slowly developing body of classic belgian floral notes balanced against a hoppy but full back bone. The finish is hoppy and lasts pelasantly long.
Overall a wonderfully enjoyable beer that I’m sure I will purchase again and again.
