A nice golden yellow color with very little head that disappears quickly. The nose is complex fruit, maybe orange, with sweetness and malts. The flavor follows with nuttiness and fruits with the sweet maltiness really showing up midpalate. Nice beer and the alcohol is nicely hidden.

Light amber pour with a creamy white head. Sweet, fruity aroma. Candied peach and citrus flavors over a nice yeasty backdrop. The higher ABV is almost totally undetectable. Very pleasant drinking.

Cask Conditioned version at Pizza Paradiso Aroma: A whole bunch of stuff Fuity, Malty, floral and yeasty with a little funk Appearance: Cloudy, Straw yellow with a white thin head Taste: Delicious with blend of malty background, honey-dew, some spicy flavors peeking thru Palate: Light bodied the tastes starts off bready and slightly hoppy but finishes slightly sweet Overall: A great expression of a Saison, unlike the classic Saison Dupont, this does not finish super dry... definitely could use some help slightly drying up the finish otherwise very delicious

On tap @ Coles Buffalo NY. Golden color with medium carbonation. Much sweeter than previous saisons. Spicy & alcohol well hidden. Wouldnt really classify as a saison but I Like this

Pours golden brown with a decent off white head. Aroma is a fruity malty smell. Taste is also slightly fruity and wine like. Good stuff.
