dm9831 (1167), Monee, Illinois, USA Mar 8, 2009 hazy gold, big fluffy white head, nice lace. aroma of dried fruit, yeast, some sour fruit notes. flavor of sweet malt, dried fruit, yeast, raisins, spices, pepper.... medium body, very dry finish. quite enjoyable. sampled with cornfield, whiling away the time at his place. Linnet (107), , Sweden Mar 8, 2009 Golden colour, big off-white head, lacing. Aroma is malty, almost lagerlike. Still there is yeasty notes flowery notes, citric notes and also aroma of vinegar. Flavour is rather hoppy for being a belgian beer. There is also an acidic quality to it. ABV is evident without being dominant. The flavour is also spicy and fruity, perfume. Mouthfeel is very smooth with small bubbles and the liquid is very crisp.

Reed415 (8), Youngstown, Ohio, USA does not count Mar 3, 2009 Pours a yellow color with a white head. Noise is full of wheat and spices. Flavor is a very mellow wheat spice yeast mix. My favorite Saison. Highly Recommend Floback (333), Naples, Florida, USA Mar 3, 2009 Bottle from Knightly Spirits. Pours a copper color and small white head. The nose is creamy vanilla and subtle citrus and spices. Flavors include grains and creamy wheat with a slight bite of alcohol. Medium/full body and medium/full carbonation. Saisons are my favorite style due to their complexity, but this brew was quite generic and uninteresting. MrBunn (1518), Western, Pennsylvania, USA Feb 28, 2009 Sample on tap at Vintage Estates. Pours a slightly hazy amber with a decent-sized, fizzy head. Aromas are spices, lemon and grass, without the buttery sweetness that drives me away from some of the other saisons. Flavor is nice enough, but I’m thinking that saisons aren’t my cup of beer, so to speak. It is fairly light, driven by the grass and light fruit, but rather uninspiring as far as I am concerned. It is strange to me that this is 9.5%... you would never guess it from the flavor. Joakgust (320), Stockholm, Sweden Feb 27, 2009 Hazy light orange beer with a large lazing head. The aroma is typical saison with malty notes and hints of spices, belgian yeast and citrus. The flavor is rather light and malty sweet with hints of some funky ripe fruits. Very typical saison which is not the type of saison I prefer. I’ll have to get another for storing... jkwalking05 (1483), Arlington, Texas, USA Feb 25, 2009 On tap at the Flying Saucer. Gold in color and a little hazy with a decent sized white head. Aroma is of hops, heavy spices and fruit. Taste is of fruit, citrus, and spices with a decent alcohol warmth. travita (1851), Frisco, Texas, USA Feb 22, 2009 On tap at the Flying Saucer in Ft. Worth. The look is murky, copper colored, decent off white head. The smell is yeast, spices, fruit, lemon, and orange. The taste is yeasty, fruits, spices, wheat, decent alcohol burn at the end.
