OleR (4247) - Oslo, NORWAY - MAY 4, 2013
From tap @Mikkeller & Friends. Golden orange colored body. Virtually no head. Low aroma level. Light spivy with hiny of yellow fruits. Clean, reatrained malt body. Faint spices and a light tone of sweetish yellow fruits. Light-bodied. Feels a little diluted in the mouth. Clean and easy drinkable, lack some weight and power. [26.0.13]

snzcujo (274) - RUSSIA - MAY 4, 2013
Tasted on tap @Mikkeller bar, Copenhagen, 04/05/2013. Pours moderately hazy orange, with an ok white head. Taste is intense, citrusy, grassy and flowery. Aftertaste is way too bitter, grassy and a bit metallic. Quite a good beer, except its aftertaste. Worth to try. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

hirigalzkar (1820) - Stockholm, SWEDEN - MAY 3, 2013
Draught @ Mikkeller bar. Pours golden hazy with a small white head. First impression crisp and with heavy grapefruit notes. Then the dryness and spiciness (white pepper) takes over. Yeasty aftertaste that sends the thoughts to a bitter and funky cheese.

mikedR (359) - Gilbert, Arizona, USA - MAY 1, 2013
Interesting Northwest take on a saison or biere de garde. Cloudy spirited pour. All the saison notes are present: suitable malts, a hint of floral, some citrus, etc. Pepper gives way quickly to hops, which transforms into a lingering mild bitterness. Quite nice; this one just "works" and is recommended. Amazing flavor, too, for the low 5.5% ABV, which is a pleasant surprise. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Koelschtrinker (8474) - Köln (Cologne), GERMANY - APR 23, 2013
Hopfig-hefiger Antrunk, frisch. Blumige Noten kommt im Mittelteil hervor, sie bleiben lange Zeit erhalten, dazu kommen noch leicht bittere Noten sowie eine leichte Fruchtigkeit. Hell, die Hopfigkeit wird intensiver, bleibt dabei aber weich und blumig. Mild herb, minimale Süße. 12/12/11/11/13/11
