Draught at GABF 2008. Clear golden coloured with a medium sized white head. Fruity and spicy aroma of yeast with notes of rubber. Fruity flavour of spices, yeast and hops. Spicy finish.

GreatLibations (1771) - Last Supper, Arizona, USA - OCT 17, 2008
They say there is no food that bacon can not enhance the flavor of. Thanks hellbilly! Pours golden with a decent head leaving a bit of lace around the edges. Smells like banana gum and hay. Medium nectar with good carbonation. Malty sweet with a bit of noticeable hop infusion for bitterness.The finish lingers. Not a fan.

beerinmarch (2830) - Washington, USA - OCT 11, 2008
Pours honey gold with a smooth white head. Yeasty nose, lots of crisp hops and light grain. Palate is dry and the hops quickly take over. Malts come out fruity, citrus and peach notes. Yeasty bitter finish overwhelmed a bit, but still nice.

golubj (1373) - San Mateo, California, USA - OCT 11, 2008
Can, thanks to kosko20. Nice yellow pour with some white head. Aroma is some sweet pale belgian malt and light spicing. Flavor is the same, the sweetness is nice, somewhat grainy, a hint of lemony citrus, and some peppery spices in the back. Decent example of the style.

Cletus (6025) - Connecticut, USA - OCT 5, 2008
Can courtesy of tytoanderso. Pours gold with a white rocky head. Smells of caramel, some perfume, dough. Tastes of sweet malt, a touch of citrus, resin, spice. Nice!

redlem (1203) - Ohio, USA - OCT 4, 2008
On tap. Saison Lite? All the characteristics of a saison are here only they seem watered down. The yeast and pepper all seemed like they came from a gallon bucket of water. A very typical and PC version of a saison.

TwoDudes (77) - Louisville, Kentucky, USA - OCT 1, 2008
Very nice nose. Classic Belgian estery nose. But, the palate was thin. Nice, but very forgettable.

Rusty (1509) - Mesa, Arizona, USA - SEP 18, 2008

Flavor is fruits, hops, malts, belgian yeasts, peppery spiciness, bitterness, bread, floral notes. Favorite canned beer from surly so far.
