06 bottle. Poured a slightly hazy golden color with some rising bubbles and a thick white head that left nice lacing. Crisp nose with some nice citrus (lemon rind), coriander and some other spices, yeast, and some wheat. Crisp entry with a smooth citrus character leads into a funky, yeasty middle with some nice spiciness light hops on the finish with some more undertones of citrus. Very nice flavor profile that is complimented nicely by the mouthfeel of the beer. Light, crisp, and drying on the finish. Very good beer.

Aug 4, 2008 Pours hazy yellow with a big white head. Patchy lacing. Citrus, yeast, pepper, and a musty aroma. Crisp taste, good amount of lemon zest, pepper, and spice. Still, a musty overtone that leaves a metallic bite. Enjoyable.

Aug 3, 2008 It’s summertime in Texas and that means I drink a lot of saisons.
Saison Dupont is one of my favs.
Poured into a gimme wine glass. Substantial head. Lots of fluffy Belgian foam.
Scent is fruity , pears, but some funkiness also.
Taste: Fruity that fades to dryness, just the right amount of sour. Fine bubbles dance on my palate.
Mouthfeel: see above. very nice.
Drinkability : drinks like a 4%abv beer. Great beer for texas summers.
Serving type: bottle

Aug 2, 2008 Pours like a glass of sparkling wine. Very bubbly. Golden pour with lots of carbonation and a thick fluffy white head. Spicy peppery aroma. With some fruit, perhaps apple a bit of sweetness. Very dry flavor with with lots of spice. A bit of earth and wood and a touch of fruit. Very refreshing.
