OhioDad (2492), Hilliard, Ohio, USA Sep 6, 2007 Bottle via trade with stegosaurus - Thanks - Pours golden with a short white head that faded pretty quick. Aromas of bread, faded citrus, and spice. Flavor is of honey, spice, lots of bread and a hint of citrus. Slight carbonaton with a good smooth dry mouthfeel. Not bad for a beer probably past it’s prime.
AskForJenny (445), Ontario, New York, USA Sep 25, 2008 0.75l - The meringue like head sits atop a slightly cloudy brass colored beer. The flavor is nice and subtle, so pervasive you don’t even notice it taking over. Has that dusty basement funky I like in the saison. Nice Belgian lace on the glass. Really good. WeeHeavySD (1839), San Diego (Hillcrest), California, USA Sep 24, 2008 750ml bottle Bonus from JCB. Shared with my gf Cyn who is always happy to have a PA brew. Pours orange with a bright white thin head. Nose is floral and slightly spiced. Taste is spicy, fruity and floral with a nice complex feel. Also there is a nice prickly feeling in my mouth and my tongue. Nice Saison on my current Saison Kick. jstraw (466), Oak Park, Illinois, USA Sep 13, 2008 Bomber at Jerry’s. Hazy-orange gold with big, foamy off-white head / Nose of banana, citrus & spice / Medium body, malty, yeasty, with aggressive carbonation, and decent, bitter finish / Flavors of banana, orange, clove, oak, and coriander / Good, solid saison. nearbeer (1316), Knoxville, Tennessee, USA Sep 12, 2008 750 ml, bottled Jul 03, 2007. Little sea monkey yeasties floating in this orange-amber beer. Quarter inch, lasting cap leaves behind creamy frosting. Aromas of orange peel, banana, papaya, peppery resin and earthy yeast. Flavors of clove-banana, papaya, brown sugar, pear and apple are well-checked by peppery citrus zest, light oak and some evergreen resin. Light-medium body is soft but has some spice-hop tingle and finishes dry. heemer77 (3752), Savannah, Missouri, USA Sep 2, 2008 from a 750, thanks for sharing, theisti. The body was cloudy medium gold. The aroma was sweet apples and leather. There was also a little spice hint, maybe cinnamon. The taste was sweet cake donuts with some pears. There was also a nice woody dryness. A decent brew, but overall a little boring.
