750ml bottle: This one pours a cloudy, straw yellow color. It has a large frothy head on it and leaves a good amount of lacing. Nice aroma. Grassy, floral, yeasty, some lighter fruits. The taste is pretty decent also. Definitely a dry taste to it. Grassy, yeast, malts, some lighter fruits. A nice brew.

I’m not familiar with saisons but this was a nice drinkable beer. I like this whole Smokestack series of brews from Boulevard.

Nov 24, 2009 750 ml bottle courtesy redlight. Pours a hazy golden yellow color with a small, foamy white head that settles quickly leaving spots of lace behind. The aroma shows a sweet pale malt base along with notes of fresh floral and grassy hops, spices, and some corn. The flavor follows with chamomile and citrus fruit balanced out by the floral hops and the sweet pale malts. Medium bodied with balanced carbonation with a dry, spicy finish. This one drinks real easy. Pretty nice saison, but nothing too crazy.

Nov 19, 2009 Chamomile and spices on the nose with slight funk, very nice. Pours cloudy blonde with a thick white head. Chamomile comes out right away with light fruit notes and spices, citrus notes with earthy hops. Solid saison!

Nov 19, 2009 Bottle thanks to Soonah. Lightly hazy, orange yellow with an even white finger of foam. Aroma is musty, spicy, fruit, apples, pears. Taste is floral, fruity, spicy, some alcohol or just strong thinning spiciness. This is nice, but I definitely prefer the Tank 7.

Nov 9, 2009 Bottle: Pours a nice hazy orange with a fizzy white head. The nose is bright and citrusy with lots of earthy peppery notes and yeast esters flying about. Wheat and yeast, spice and herbs in the flavor. A nice bold body and prominent mouthfeel are more than the usual carbonation-forward belgian varieties, which is nice. Tart finish with more pepper herbs and yeast esters. Very nice saison for a bold american attempt. Perhaps a little too heavy on the citrus hops, but that’s about it.
