BückDich (4559), Boise, Idaho, USA May 6, 2008 Bottle: Pours a golden hazy yellow color, huge carbonation and a quickly dissipating head. LOUD pop on the cork; spotty lacing. The nose is spicy; plenty of esters, fruity pepper and a sulfur carbonation note; blends well. The flavor is smooth, nice esters, low alcohol bite, bitterness and acidity compliment each other. Finishes clean. Nice! Thanks BuckeyeBoy!
thornecb (1141), Marblehead, Massachusetts, USA Oct 9, 2008 Pours golden amber into a snifter. Fluffy bright white head recedes to hug rim leaving slight sheets. Orange and aspirin aromas. Spritzy with a multitude of flavors. Orange, lemon, alcohol, sour grapes, pepper, biscuit, dusty leaves and earth. Lasting finish that mixes all of the above. LIke a fresh Fantome. jkaiser (114), USA Oct 9, 2008 Lite verison of the big beers in the saison league. Numebr 26 on my beerfest quest. MaltOMeal (327), Land of Sugar, Texas, USA Oct 8, 2008 750ml bottle thanks to mcbackus. Pours a pale golden color with a large white head. nose is of lemon and grass. taste is of lemon, spices including pepper. Mouthfeel is thin and watery with carbonation. dry finish. Very drinkable. I polished this puppy off by myself with no problem. after4ever (1752), Brier, Washington, USA Oct 5, 2008 750. Thanks, BVC! I’ve had unratable bottles of this, but this bottle has to be a lot closer to what the brewer was aiming for. Or at least hoping for. :-) Beautiful cloudy medium gold with a thin but dense white fizzy heads. Nice sweet floral, grassy, slightly bubble gummy nose. Plenty of lace. Creamy, lightly fizzy medium body. Apples, bubblegum, balsa wood, grass, and flowers on the mid-palate. Mild, dry finish. Great stuff. DougShoemaker (2614), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Oct 2, 2008 Soft nose of funky fruit, cloudy apricot, medium sized fluffy off-white head. Taste is a melange of funky fruit, followed by decent malt and subtle spice. Liight bodiied, sour/tart, with a refreshing mouthfeel. Terrific! Thanks Beershine and Oakes.
