Bottle: pours a cloudy orangish color with a frothy white head, strong citrus aroma with some spices, taste is spicy, dry, thin mouthfeel with a slight bitterness in the back of the throat. Very nice.

An elegant pale coloured beer. Quite foamy. Cloudy and also bubbling. Light and full of taste. Magnificent beer. Good with cooked whitefish.

750mL bottle shared @ Monk’s with Pwn3d and Belushi. Poured a hazy golden body with spritzer-like carbonation - little white head. The aroma i spice, and maybe orange. The taste was spicy, with ginger and orange. The 9.5% alcohol is hidden very well. Great saison.

750ml 2007 edition bottle at Monk Cafe. Very much reminded me of La Fin Du Monde. Taste is great.. clove, orange, some ginger, and spice. Alcohol was there if you looked for it, but for the most part extremely well hidden. Awesome huey orange color. Vivacious carbonation. Went extremely well with food. Would highly recomend.

Pours cloudy yellow with chunkies dispersed throughout. Head is white and fades fast. Aroma is standard for saison: spice, hops, and the barnyard funk. Not as highly carbonated as I thought it would be, but still is lively on the palate. Flavor is spice, yeast, hops. I was hoping for a drier and hoppier finish. This is good but I think I like the Vieille Provision better. It seems a bit strong for a Saison and seems to be better fit for the holidays and not a refreshing summer saison. All that said I still like this brew and would put it a close second behind the Vieille Provision.

Clear yellow golden color with a white head that has good retention and lacing. Smells of bubblegum, chamomille, flowers, and hints of pepper and ginger. Light spice, chamomille, clove, and bubblegum in the taste. Medium bodied with high carbonation. Good stuff.

Bottle. I’ve had this one many times as its sure to show up at tastings and probably one of my fist if not my first saison. {ours a cloudy orange with foamy white head. Loads of spices funk and hops seep out of this pour swirling around your mouth and leaving the etoh out of the picture. Great way to introduce yourself to the style.
