Bottle (12 oz). Extra from John, thanks! Clear golden with a small diminishing white head and no lacing. Aroma of pineapple, floral, candi sugar and light peppery notes.

12oz bottle split in 3. Hazy orange-tan. Funky orange, some odd tropical undertones. Peppery. Not a perfect Saison, some sugary sweet malt tones, not so zest of effervescent. Pineapple-lemon-herb flavors. OK.
3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
I get that lemon cough drop thing on the aroma..not in a bad way..citrusy and slight spice...pure yellow hazy with pure white head that dissipates,some lacing...good taste lemony,citrusy,a bit of yeast,maybe slightly less spicy than some but that means more refreshing too..palate is thin bodied with light carbonation..overall a great summer beer and although similar to most saison or farmhouse ales has its own character
