| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jun 13, 2007 Hazy, dark golden color with a thin and quickly disappearing white head. Spicy floral aroma with elements of wheat, spices, and citrus. Nice sweet/spicy flavors of wheat with a slight hint of wild flowers, black pepper, and citrus. Full-bodied, sugary mouthfeel with a lot of carbonation. Dry, clean, bitter finish. Some lingering stickiness. Good stuff. Thaichile (599), 10aFly, New Jersey, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jun 7, 2007 Bottle. Pours a yellow gold with a less than normal sized head with no longevity. Nose is completely funky and barnyard which I really like. Continuation of those earthy, spicy saison flavos/scents that just make you love the style. However, this one has some slight bittering in the background which is more present in the finish. This took away a bit from the overall profile. All in all I enjoyed this one and would definately have it again. bhensonb (4360), Woodland, California, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Jun 1, 2007 Pleasant aroma of flowers, fruit, yeast and spice. Maybe stone fruit, maybe banana. Hazy golden color with a white head that ran off and hardly tried to lace. Definitely banana aroma as the glass approaches the lips. Medium mouthfeel, quickly thinning as the carbonation leaves. Definitely banana in the mouth, and I’d say clove. Something of a hefebarley? The nose is pleasing with every sip, and the flavor and mouthfeel are very good. The malt is simply a canvas for the flavors. The finish is a hint of bitter, with a slight oiliness, and some spice. This is very different and very good. grant (792), Colorado Springs, CO, Colorado, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | May 15, 2007 Slightly hazy golden brown with beautiful lacy, fine head. Orange/banana aroma laced with spicy, somewhat clovey yeast aspects. Full, softly malty flavor, carrying over the aroma notes for the most part. Spicy, leafy citric bitterness finishes this well-structured brew. YogiBeera (2437), Hamburg, Germany

Nice yeast and apricot nose - good balance - round and nice. Slighty hard water taste. Spicey. Very nice. LinusStick (1848), Moon Twp, suburb of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA
| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Apr 23, 2007 A somewhat weak tasting saison. Never heard of this brewer. Pour was a light orange with no head. Aroma was very weak..couldn’t make it out. Taste was a lightly carbonated mix of orange, lemon and spices. Nice but there are better out there. targhee (24), Boulder, Colorado, USA
