Bottled at Monk’s Café, Stockholm. Hazy orange colour, massive creamy head. Lovery aroma of orange, coriander and cinnamon. Fairly dry, juic and fruity. Light and fresh with rounded spritzy mouthfeel. Lovely complex flavour with everything from dough to orange jam and bitter herbs. Long herbal bitterness. Perhaps the juicy flavour dies a bit early, but it has remarkable qualities!

Jul 1, 2008 Hazy dirty blonde colour. Complex herbal/spicy aroma with flowers, green peppercorn, maybe some thyme or lemongrass - there’s a lot of subtle stuff. Very bright herbal taste - lots of herbal bitter dryness, subtle florals, assertive yeast, clove, leaf herbs...crazy complexity, lots of fun. Liquorice accents. Fun stuff.

Jun 22, 2008 Rating #200!! On tap at the Ginger Man. Pours a cloudy orange with a small white head. Aroma of sour fruits, wheat. Flavor of sourness, oak, tartness. Slow sipper with a heavy mouthfeel. Pretty good saison, nothing incredibly remarkable about it though.

Jun 22, 2008 On tap at Ginger Man. Aroma of sourness and wheat, simple but powerful, with some spices and champagne-like fruitiness in the background. No surprises in the mouth, the various notes didn’t grow into anything mind-blowing, but still quite tasty. Very nice.

Jun 15, 2008 Tap at Ginger Man. Hazy golden amber with a lovely pillowy thick white head. Aroma is lovely. Rich spicy yeastiness, some clove, lots of white pepper and allspice along with a light sprucey fruitiness. Flavour is a bit unusual initially. Herbal flavour with a vaguely bark-like astringency. As it warms some light floral aromas and lighter spiciness comes out. Very wheaty tasting as well. Soft and crackery dry malts with a lovely combination of floral/fruity aromas. Quite a nice saison.

Jun 8, 2008 Artebirra Pasturana 2008: poco prima di mangiare, una delle più belle sorprese, in formissima. Aroma e sapore complessi e soddisfacenti, che ne avrei voluto un bigonzo.
