Apr 7, 2009 pours a dirty tan gold, with big but somewhat short lasting head. Aroma of dust, hay, mustard, lemon zest; very much a saison with a dose of funk. Tastes of citrus, hay, light vinegar, mustard, dust, and grass. Finishes dry, dusty and grassy. Medium bodied, the high carbonation keeps things light. Good, but it’s totally what you’d expect. A saison with brett, wooo.

Mar 28, 2009 Clear golden/orange in colour with an initially large white head that was quick to dissipate, light lacing. The aroma is very light, with some apples, yeast and must. The flavour is where the brett takes over, lots of yeast, citrus with a moderate bitterness. Moderately bitter mouthfeel, medium/light body, medium/high carbonation. Finishes long, bretty and bitter.
The aroma was pretty much non-existent but the brett in the flavour was fantastic. If anyone still has batch #1 drink them now.

Mar 24, 2009 Having had this 20+ times, I think its fair to enter a rating. Sort of like Orval, my experiences with this beer have been up and down. Some bottles have been crisp, dry, lightly bretty, and dry and others have been overly spicy, sweet, or just off. But for the most part I like this beer and my experiences have been more of the former.

Mar 23, 2009 Thin filmy head of minute bubbles. Reduces to a thin sheen on the surface. Organic aroma with some light lemon, herbs, white grape and spices. Color is a hazy golden orange. Little light on the carbonation for a saison. Whoa, very crisp and refreshing. Like biting into a crisp green apple. Tangy bitternesss and dryness that sits in the back of the throat. More earthy flavors, spices and lemon. Dry yet succulent. Each swllow makes the mouth salivate for more. A very unusual brew but one that is actually pretty damn good and very easy drinking. Lingering dryness and pastyness but still a very plesant drink.

Mar 21, 2009 ummmm, im not sure what to say. this is definetly the most interesting beer ive had in a long time. its like its not sure whether it wants to be a lambic, a farmhouse ale, a pale ale, or maybe a little of it wishes to be a champagne? delicious, herbal, and refreshing, a wonderful mix of flavors, tight bubbles make for a bit of a bite at first, but mellows out very qiuckly. a wonderfiul find

Mar 14, 2009 750 ml bottle Batch 1, June 2007 3/14/09 (Binny’s Naperville)- Pours a hazy golden body with a huge white head. Aroma of yeast and malt. Taste is of the same with a little hops thrown in along with some lemon. This medium bodied brew is quite interesting. The Bret yeast definitely adds a little funk but definitely for the better. Another great brew from Ommegang.
