| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Sep 3, 2008 Bottle. Pours bright yellow/orange with medium head, good lacing. Smells of Belgian style, yeast, wheat, citrus. Taste is juicy orange, belgian wheat, slightly sweet, with some honey; medium carbonation is a great touch. The flavor is very full attributed to the bottle re-fermentation. Great lingering finish of belgian style. Some noticable hops that taste great as well. I heard this won’t be around much longer....sad if it’s true. Kevster (240), Bradenton, Florida, USA

Malty aroma is spicy and citrusy with hints of pepper, bananas, and honey. Flavor is sweet and tarty that is creamy yet a dry mouthfeel on the palate. Well balanced and enjoyable!

| 4.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Aug 29, 2008 750 ml bottle, 8 months in storage. Medium golden with a bit of honey orange. Low, lacy head. Spicy, citrus aroma of honey, lemon, Belgian yeasts, golden malts. Spicy, citrus, honey-like flavor, spritzy, lots of honey and lemon, medium sweetness, nice hopping. More hops than a regular saison, a bit more simple in the malts, and a bit too much alcohol taste, but very nice. Excellent, nice all around, though a step down from a Dupont. Should age well for a couple years.
