22oz bomber courtesy of MrRetardedMonkey poured into a tulip. Pours a crystal clear golden orange with a decent fluffy white head that dissipated very quickly to a ring with limited lacing. The aroma is a mixture of bready Belgian yeast, roasted caramel malts and spices. Not that I was expecting a lot, but there was virtually no funk at all. The taste is a little better than the aroma and had the slight funk I was looking for. There is still the dominant breadiness of the Belgian yeast throughout with significant peppery spices and a good bit of light fruits, peaches and apricots especially. The mouthfeel is light to medium bodied with good carbonation. This is a good saison, though not at the top of my list in the style or of Smuttynose beers I’ve had. Still tasty.

Bomber via trade with phhd. Thanks Ethan. Pours orangey yellow with a tan head. Nose is spiced and decent. Taste is sweet and spiced and slightly citrussy. Interesting psuedo Saison.

Bomber. Poured brilliant medium golden with a short cap of pure white head. The aroma was strong and spicy upfront with black pepper and spiked light fruity notes.. almost smelled syrupy with a pinch of honey joining.. warmth brought out some floral presence (chamomile?).. a little too assertive. The flavor had a sticky-sweet core of honey and caramel maltage with peppery and floral spiceage again.. just a little funk in there.. finished strong and warm. Thicker-bodied on the palate with low carbonation.. sweet at times when I wish it was dry.. not really digging the strong saison here.

22 oz. bottle - pours mostly clear and dark orange; white head to the edges; some tartness with aromas of orange and lemons; freshest tasting of the 3 sampled together; smooth, rich body; kind of reminds me of a pale ale with the farmhouse flavors; no funk or much sourness; most enjoyable to drink of the 3, but maybe more along the lines of an american saison

Pretty standard saison made outside of Belgium. Apricot aroma with slight amounts of funk. Nice fruity/spicy taste.
