3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Cloudy orange-brown (looks dirty) with a small white head. Nose is spicy and medicinal. Taste is dominated by an unusual flavour that I’m not used to, supposedly it is an aromatic plant called the woodruff. I can only describe these aromatic flavours as mint, spices, medicine, lilac. All that floating on top of a rather malty and caramelized body. Like having sex with a really dumb cheerleader, this is good stuff as long as you don’t have it too often.
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Bottle. Cloudy orange, big creamy eggshell head. Sunbaked clay, peaches and fresh herbs. Light yet chewy body. Fruity base, bready, sweet - the woodruff shines through now and then. Hides strength very well - drinkable like soda. Bready aftertaste.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottled. Amber color with weak head. Sweet and fruity aroma with notes of melon and plum. Sweet herb liquer like flavor with licorice, plum and raisins. Sweet and spicy finish. Very sweet but still a pleasant dessert beer. To my mind a saison should be dry and refreshing. This is just the opposite.

3 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Dark blond cloudy beer with a small head. The aroma is of bread, caramel, malt and hop while the taste is floral-fruity-candy-bitter in an odd earthy way. Initially I thought this was really a good beer but now at the end of 33cl it is just a bit too much. Still it is an ok beer.
