Feb 14, 2007 Clear golden, ring of bubbles. Candi sugar and spice up front, very tripel-like. Faint floral and pale malt background. Flavor is veru tripel-like as well, dominated by candi sugar. Really have to dig to get anything else. Pretty muddled up in general.

Apr 20, 2008 On tap at the Oldsmar Tap House on 4/18/08. Pours a clear golden (like a pilsner) with a thin white head. Minimal lacing on glass. Aroma: some spice, some fruit, maybe hints of honey. Slightly sour tasting with a hint of complex cheeses. Slightly sweet throughout with a somewhat thin, watery finish.

Nov 29, 2008 Floaty McBoaty yellow with a thin white head. Aroma of toasted malts, fruit, mild Belgian sugar and some mild pale malts. Taste of toasted malt, fruit, spice and white grapes. Dry, somewhat fruity aftertaste that’s a bit spicy too. Good but not great.

Jul 7, 2009 bottle BB aug 2009.
the clearest saison i have ever seen?... slightly hazed golden with a small white head.
really sweet smelling... pale brown sugar, candi, orange, spiciness and bready yeast.
the flavor follows... fairly sweet, turbinado sugar, orange, coriander, yeast and some spiciness on the attempt at a dry finish.
medium to full bodied and sticky with residuals. it has a soft texture yet it is prickly with spice. 5/2.5/5/3/12/2.75

Jul 11, 2006 Looks like an american pils... golden color, effervescent, light head. Aromas are weak-of honey and grass. Flavor picks up honey-like sweetness and runs with it. Not much else going on. Maybe a little banana/cloves if you’re feeling generous and searching for something. I find it a little hard to believe that there is 8% ABV here, but that may be the most redeeming quality of an otherwise mediocre offering.

Jan 2, 2008 Light body . Fruity kind of like apple juice. Frothy and creamy strong but light at the same time. Butter and some apple butter to round it out.

Dec 27, 2004 Clear golden with a bunch of floating particles and a quickly dissapating white head. Banana and clove in the nose. Taste has the same plus notes of spiciness, yeast, lemon, some apple and candi sugar. Very sweet, couldn’t detect that much bitterness. Alcohol content very well hidden. Much more full bodied than the appearance would make you think - very full, round and creamy with lively carbonation. No lacing or head retention. Overall, solid.

Jun 24, 2009 12oz bottle. Pours a clear glowing lighter golden with a small fizzy white froth. Balanced aroma of vanilla, flowers, lightly sweet, hint of grass, touch spicy, hint of honey, yeasty, doughy, very balanced. Flavor follows, quite balanced and surprisingly tasty, slightly full for a saison, chalky, vanilla, doughy, yeasty, lightly spicy , off-dry sweetness finishing quite dry with just a touch of lingering candi sugar. Medium bodied with a almost hard candy feel, glassy, with lots of full airy carbonation. Love the hops right in the fnish, lovely beer.
