Tastes almost just like it smells. Has a medium body with a bitter long finish. Decent but not great. milljam (584), Norman, Oklahoma, USA
| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 3/5 | 17/20 | Dec 8, 2009 Aroma is yeasty, with notes of fruity esters, hops (pine, resin, citrus)...very earthy. Flavor is very similar, with the hoppy, earthy profile upfront, followed by fruity esters and yeast. Overall, the hoppy freshness was very unexpected, but quite delicious. More hoppy than most saisons, but still just as great. KAggie97 (2476), Ugly, Hot, and Humid Spring, Texas, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Nov 25, 2009 Tap at Anchor Bar, Wichita. Pours a deep yellow with a lively body and a nice white head. Aroma is light lemon hay, and the flavor resonates with a nice, floral honey and a crisp, sweet grass finish. Nice, tingly mouthfeel that leaves a thick coat on the tongue. A refreshing beer.

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Nov 16, 2009 good farmhouse. pours cloudy gold. yeasty aroma. flavors are soft with grassy hops and citrus, a slight peppery finish. good version of the style. potbeercollege (399), Boulder, Colorado, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Nov 16, 2009 Draught from Kitchen. Orange/yellow with little white head. Aroma is acidic and fruity, alcoholic also with apple, pineapple, and yeast. Flavor is also yeast with fruits at first of pears, orange and booze. Then big hops of grass and citrus, also floral, knock you back with bitter bite balancing. A delicately aromatic brew with big flavor across the board. Dangerously well hidden booze.

| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Nov 14, 2009 On tap at Brouwers. Hazy straw color with a yeasty and coriander aroma. Very interesting interpretation. The alcohol is undetectable. The flavor is dominated by citrus and spices, more specifically the coriander. Carbonated and medium body. Fantastic. riversideAK (2767), Shoreline, Washington, USA
| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Nov 12, 2009 Tap at Brouwers. Nose is nice and citrusy with some good lemon and lime hop notes, some floral hops, dusty yeast notes, and some spice as well. Pours hazy golden with a fluffy head and good lace. Balanced with good fruity citrus hop notes, wheat, spice, and some dusty yeasty esters. Clean hoppy finish. Moderate carbonation and insanely drinkable.

| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Nov 11, 2009 Draft at Brouwer’s. Slightly hazed golden with fluffy white head. Wheat, hay, dusty lemon, yeasty esters, pink peppercorn. Carbonation isn’t as assertive as I would like to feel. The nose scents are are present in the flavor, but very delicate and balanced. Bitter and dry as well, but again balanced. Nice stuff, but I’m a bigger fan of their current saison.
