Based on activity alone This one should get perfect marks. The most amazing Things I have ever seen from a beer. Swirling bubbles and yeast. Putting Champagne to shame... and then there’s that mountain of head all frothy and white. Wow! The taste is clean with citric astrigence. It’s what I call akin to eating an orchard apple at the barn on top of a haystack. A MUST experience.

Aug 20, 2008 Bottle @ Café De Paas, DH. Cloudy yellow colour, big white head. Aroma of yeast, bit sour fruits, malts. Flavour is dry, fruity, a bit sour apples, hoppy finish. Very tasty and refreshing beer.

Aug 17, 2008 Bottle, 2007, perhaps July or August? Aroma earthy with grassy hops and faint light fruits. Flavor quite sweet and more robustly fruity, lots of oranges and reds. Very nice, even a year old, gotta try this one fresh.

Aug 16, 2008 Bottle, bottled 7/8/2007 (I think...well I’m sure about the 2007). Anyway, pours a cloudy orange with a huge thick white head. Aroma starts off a bit skunky with some stale wheat but becomes fruity by the end. Flavor is quite fruity: lots of melon, melon rind, lemon. Initial sharp spices followed by a slightly bitter and dry finish. Nice sourness from the lemon notes. Quite delicious. A top notch saison.

Aug 14, 2008 Updated: Aug 15, 2008Clear gold with a large white head. Scent is musty, cheesy, peppery. Flavor sweet but very dry and bitter, with citrus and grapes. Full bodied and well-carbonated, this is a good beer, but one that I don’t enjoy it so much.
