Jun 26, 2008 Bottle, Hoopers, East Dulwich. Poured a lightly hazy dark orange colour. Decent light brown head. Rich malty aroma with hints of caramel, dark fruit and some herb. Flavour is quite sweet with quite a bit of fruit. Some sourness in the finish. Teeters on the cloying side, but just about pulls through.

Jun 19, 2008 The Saison pours a deep copper amber with a fine off-white foam. The nose is dominated by caramel, bread, molasses, butterscotch, raisin, and a slight indistinct spicy note. Upon tasting the molasses and fruit dominate and a good amount carbonation brings the experience to life. As it fades an interesting licorice like sensation brings rich caramel attention to the back of the mouth. A remarkable effect in a beer of medium body.

Jun 16, 2008 Chestnut colour with a big beige head, light carbonation. Fruity and slightly vinuous aroma. Has an intense flavour of raisins and caramel. Much more tasty than the Aussie Saison I had before it. This more experienced brewer has more confidence. I’m liking this style now, wish I could get more of them.
