| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jun 30, 2007 Pours a light brown color with a big frothy white head. Smells of the funk, spice, a little cinnamon, citrus. A lot going on here. The taste is very funky also, a litle sour, very spicy, and a little bit fruity as well. Good saison, I liked the complexity in this beer. Big flavor left on the palate in the aftertaste and the finish. redlight (1497), Winter Park, Florida, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jun 30, 2007 This beer could have a fantome label on it and i wouldn’t know the difference! Smooth and sweet. Light and crisp. Malty yet hoppy with a nice little sourness. Great beer! joshwilfong (797), Cleveland, Ohio, USA

Unfortunately, the finish is very weak with no complex aftertaste and a final flavor that is difficult to even discerm. Not great ChillCoat (1029), Concord, California, USA
| 2.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 4/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 9/20 | Jun 24, 2007 Bottle. Copper colored with a big ivory head and lively carbonation. Skunky hop aroma with sweet fruit notes. Thinly flavored. Somewhat yeasty with a slight fruitiness that I cannot necessarily say is figs or not. Flavor seems very soft and almost not there; like drinking wet carbonated air. mgermani (865), Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Jun 21, 2007 Yeasty, figgy aroma, light sweetness. Incredible head, I had to pour in three stages. Orangey-copper liquid. Figgy, hoppy taste. Very light malt, interesting yeastiness, dry and lacking finish. Very "green" tasting hops, late additions perhaps. Creamy body, nice carb. This is a pleasant beer, but lacking in any real strong character. Too subtle for my taste. SHIG (2048), Aviano, Italy
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jun 14, 2007 Bottle: Poured a rusty copper color that cleared up as it sat with a white head. The aroma was hoppy floral. The taste was metallic malt and yeast. I think this bottle might have been past its good by date. Kinda week on the back end for me. daHammer (60), Smyrna, Georgia, USA
