Pours a clear golden color with thin white head. Spicy aroma with hints of citrus and other crisp fruit. Another very quaffable beer from this excellent brewery. Nice malt presence balances out the spice and fruit (orange, lemon, apple, pear, berries) flavor.

Oct 7, 2008 Mega-giant white head. Bright amber turns cloudy as you pour. Lively dancing nose. Hops and a hint of Belgian farm. Light airy body. Gently sweet. A little bit sour and tangy. Hoppy funk, although not as funky as some of the Belgian examples.. Belgian IPA or American Triple.

Oct 7, 2008 Bottle at the KSBF- Light hazy gold pour, good foam white head. Light, pepper spiced with a yeast-grassy body and very slight citrus notes. Earthy and lively with a dry finish. A great farm house Saison.

Oct 5, 2008 Had at the KSBF ’08. Can’t remember if it was on tap or poured from a bottle. Lightly hazed gold body topped by a big fluffy white head. Peppery, phenolic, lemon nose. Tastes of candy, spicy esters, grass, lemon. Very crisp with a dry finish. Delicious.

Pours hazy gold with a lovely white and fluffy head. Nice spicy aroma, plenty of orange zest and pepper, and a flavor that follows. Full, intense flavors and a pretty full mouthfeel, think of this one as a more spicy-orangy less funky-musky Avec Les Bon Vieux. Excellent though by the end of the bottle it was starting to wear on me, unlike some of the other more sessionable saisons out there (Avril, I’m talking about you!)

Sep 20, 2008 This Saison is super dry and just as good as you would expect from a guy that wrote a book about Saisons and Biere du Gardes.
