Jul 13, 2008 Faintly cloudy orange, with a nice constant carbonation. Mellow perfuey, citrusy aroma. Flavor is tart and winey. Not sure how typical of the style is, but it is tasty and refreshing.

Apr 14, 2008 Bottle from acknud! Thanks! Nose of cloves, nutmeg, maybe a hint of corriander, some light yeastiness, and some banana esters; lightly hazy yellow with a medium pale yellow head; flavor has spiciness, bananas, light sweetness, and a tart hint!

Aug 27, 2007 The aroma has yeast, alcohol, malt, and fruit. The appearance is golden with a small head. The flavor is like the aroma. The palate is smooth. Overall it’s OK but nothing special.

May 3, 2009 I normally shy away from Clipper City brews, but I can’t pass up a new saison, no matter who makes it - this has quite a bit of wheat malt for the style, but it’s fairly good - semi-sweet honey, tangerine, other tangy citrus character, spicy and fruity belgian yeast character - a bit of phenolic quality through the middle - sweetness makes way for potent spiciness, peppery character, a dash of hops - the finish is a bit much, making it less refreshing than a saison ought to be, but this is decent.

Jun 8, 2007 Light banana/grapefruit, musky aroma. Bad label, good cap, orange-tinged clear gold beer with a quickly dissipating quarter-inch white head. Tart, fruity, pretty sweet, spicy, slightly salty and buttery -- wit-like at times. Turns a grassy carbonated edge going into the finish, which has some off phenolic flavors. Medium body. Slightly warming. Market Square Liquors.

Aug 13, 2008 Tap at Spuyten Duyvil. Spicy hot pepper aroma though without any burn, with a bright wheaty malt coming through. Pour is clear and golden. Big peppery malts in the thin, sweet flavor, with a minor euro hop finish. Very mild, kind of scummy. Easy drinking, medium bodied.

Sep 18, 2004 Thin off-white head, hazy orange body. Sweet yeasty and hayish aroma, rather harsh. Sweet and sugary flavor with lots of oranges. Cloying and syrupy. Not very good.
