May 15, 2008 On tap at O’brien’s. This great summer beer pours with a golden-orange body topped by a medium thick to thick head with lots of lacing. It’s sweet and malty with a nice grassy note, some clove and a light fruitiness. Light bodied, smooth and a touch dry. A very nice beer to commemerate the late, great Dave Levonian. You will be missed.

Jul 8, 2008 Sample at San Diego Brewing Company. This beer is the same recipe as San Diego’s Summer Lover. The beer is a clear golden color with a thin off-white head that dissipates quickly. Thin rings of lacing. The aroma is sweet bananas, spices and yeast. Light-bodied with a soft and sweet mouthfeel. Fruity and spicy with notes of bananas and clove, as well as some yeast and malt. The finish is fruity with a lingering spice aftertaste. Pretty good all around.

May 15, 2008 On draft at O’Briens. Arrives a slightly hazy golden color with a large white head. Nice floral and bready aroma, with hints of banana and tropical fruits, light spice and herb. Pleasant, well balance saison flavors, nice floral and spicy notes, bready yeasts, toast and unripe fuits. Medium body and gentle carbonation.

May 12, 2008 On tap at Stone, during 1st day of San Diego Storm. Yellow color. Great clean saison aroma. I think the aroma is more from the yeast and high temperatures rather than corriander, though I am tempted to say corriander. Similar to Carnevale.
