Can - Light copper pour with a big frothy white head. Smells lightly spiced, with a little yeast. It’s a bit sweet and wheaty--very pleasant. Taste is a little sour and peppery, with some light fruitiness. Finishes with some nice spice and hops, and is light in the mouth, with just a hint of syrup. Nice and refreshing.

Jan 7, 2010 Updated: Jan 8, 2010Can. Thanks J12601! pours a hazy orange with a big white head that quickly diminishes to a thin white film atop the mighty beer. upfront aroma is a healthy dose of peary fruity yeast esters, hay, grass. flavor is candy, melon, sugar. Not bad. slightly too sweet. good though.

Dec 31, 2009 Pours hazy yellow out of the can, aroma is fruity and estery. Taste up front is floral with some peach and floral undertones that lead into the bready malts and the estery yeast taste at the end. Excellent saison style beer, though not my favorite type.

Dec 26, 2009 Bottle thanks to brian23456 (BA)!
Golden-amber with a decent beige head. Heavy bread crust, honey, and citrus for a saison nose, light grass and pepper following. Flavor is dominated even more by bread crust, light lemon and hints of grainy wheat in the finish. Decent but hardly to style, for those counting.

Dec 22, 2009 Pours a crisp golden-straw color with a medium soapy head which fades rather quickly. Aroma is peppery hops, belgian yeast, some sweet honey notes, and apricot. Mouthfeel is very smooth with lower carbonation than I’m used to in a Saison and I actually kind of like it - it makes it very drinkable. Taste is honey, light toasted malts, light apricot, and some belgian yeast. Not revolutionary compared to other Saisons but executed very well and insanely drinkable!

Dec 21, 2009 Pours fizzy and yellow, but that’s not a bad thing. Smells of belgian yeast and a little spicy. Light on the palate. Light flavors of banana and a little spice. Finishes dry and crisp. Pretty good.

Dec 21, 2009 Pours a hazy light amber color with light haze and little white head. Aroma is ripe fruit and Belgian spice and light clove. Taste is a different story with light yeast funk, apricot and peach and some light honey and pepper. The brewer nails the description of their own beer, who would have thunk? Finish is clean but lacks a bit of complexity. If this beer had some brett in it, it would be stellar, but it’s still the best Saison out of a can I ever had.

Dec 21, 2009 Can courtesy (I’m guessing) of tytoanderso. Pours a light hazy orange with a thin white head. Light grain and hops, citrus and apricot. Medium bodied, light grain and malt. Very subtle. Light bitter finish with a hint of crisp grain.
