TURDFERGUSON (1594), Carrboro, North Carolina, USA Aug 5, 2009 Bottle shared by Ethan. A pretty nice American saison here but still lacking the depth and finesse of some of it’s Belgian brothers and sisters. Nice citrus and earthy flavors with a relatively dry finish. A little juicy, but a nice brew from sluttyhose nonetheless. j12601 (1149), Poughkeepsie, New York, USA Aug 4, 2009
Pouring at their booth at BCTC. Pours a clearish light brown amber with a thin white head. Candy, plums, lemon, and wheat on the nose. Thin to medium bodied, with a nice zesty lemon component. A bit grassy. Finishes crisp with a light bitterness. Nice easy saison.
dmac (1418), Toms River, New Jersey, USA Jul 6, 2009 22 oz bomber from Jonathan Ron. Poured a slightly hazed orange with a smaller bright white fluffy head. Fruity and doughy aroma. Smooth body that was slightly creamy and highly quaffable. Aroma is fruity and grainy with only a light touch of spice. Rather nice. kevd193213 (477), Hope Valley, Rhode Island, USA Jul 4, 2009 Bottle. Orange brown pour with a medium off white head. Aroma of caramel, oranges and yeast. Taste is surprisingly dominated by malt and finishes with some bread and spices. yobdoog (1420), Woodridge NY, New York, USA May 2, 2009 Dark orange light brown head. Aroma is sweet and malty with some spice. Smooth taste with a little bitter bite with some earthy spice. Nice body, some wheat and creamyness. GeneralGao (3051), Iowa City, Iowa, USA Apr 19, 2009 Draft at Rattle ’n Hum. Poured a hazy light orange-gold color. The head was white and left some lace behind on the glass. Attractive aromas of butter, caramel, and orange. Medium bodied and slightly sweet with yeasty bread dough, baking spices, and a light fruity note. Seemed like there was more alcohol than 7.4%. Very good. BelgianBeerGal (1275), Sabbatical in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA Mar 20, 2009 Traded bottle. Definitely a Belgian backbone in this beer. Nice hazy orange colour with a small white head. Aroma was mostly malt and sweet fruits. Flavour was more of the same but also some yeast and then a big dose of spice hits your lips at the finish. Pleasant. Birdiebeagle (777), Perkasie, Pennsylvania, USA Mar 1, 2009 Bottle Pours a cloudy gold with a decent white head. The head lasts okay and seems to lace nicely. Has a nice sweet malt aroma with hints of yeast. Also pick up some mild fruits. Has a good carbination and a nice mouthfeel. Has a nice finish. The flavor is blended nicely. Does not seem as high in ABV as it is. Alcohol is blended nicely.
