Jul 29, 2008 On tap at Kulminator, Antwerpen.
Pours hazy golden with a good looking bubbly head. Spicy and yeasty aroma. Malty aroma with citrus and spices. Refreshing but not as dry as expected.

Jul 19, 2008 Bottle. Musty apple cider aroma. Hazy golden yellow color with an insanely giant head. Initially a slightly sweet apple cider followed by a musty, dry malt flavor. Dryness lingers nicely after swallowing. Premiere.

Jul 19, 2008 Bouteille de 750 ml verte foncée, bu à Brouhaha à Montreal le 18/7/08. Blonde brumeuse dorée, un peu de collet. Arome de malté épicé, herbe de provence, un peu sûrette. Goût de malte sec épicé, orge doux, légèrement houblonné avec une amèrturme agréable et elle devient sucré avec le temps. Une bonne beilege forte bien balancée!

Jul 17, 2008 750ml cork and cage, 2007. Hazy honey color with a frothy white head. Wet hay, yeast, bread along with pineapple, grapefruit - it smells like a tube of freshly opened tennis balls a little bit. Well round saison aroma. Crisp and earthy flavor. Pleasant spicy and hoppy finish. Musty and a little cheesy, seltzer-sized bubbles. Really quite spicy. Quite good, despite this being a winter seasonal, I think it’s still a great warm weather beer.

Jul 12, 2008 750mL. Celebrating #300! This is the epitome of a golden beer. Fluffy, dense white head depending on the pour. Nose is possibly the biggest let down, a bit of tropical fruit, and other generic sweet maltiness. Body is bursting with spiciness and other festive goodness. A healthy dose of minerality is present, mostly rust, copper pipe, and possibly brass but it is somehow well integrated with the spiciness and alcohol. This was a bit of a disappointment as the #1 rated Saison and their normal Saison is one of my favorite beers. I may have to re-visit this closer to the holidays.

Jul 12, 2008 Pours a cloudy deep yellow with a big fluffy white head. Aroma of belgian yeast, pepper, grass, lemon. Taste is roughly the same with a sweetness coming through. Good stuff. I see why this is more of a winter then summer, since it is a little bit thicker then other saisons.
