Pours a hazy rich orange-tinged gold with a nice fluffy white head. Tart aroma (pineapple and pear, citrus), mild rustic notes. The flavor is driven heavily by a sort of tangerine and muscat fruitiness that I didn’t expect; sour but not strongly so, sweet from the tangerine and laced with orange peel and spice. Easy drinking but with a satisfying full mouthfeel. For me this one wasn’t quite as dry or quite as rustic as some of my favorite saisons, instead quite strong on the spices and fruit, but it was nevertheless a very enjoyable and interesting beer. I’m quite curious at this stage to see how my second bottle changes in character with a few more years on it. aubreya (676), Chapel Hill, North Carolina, USA

| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Apr 13, 2008 Updated: Apr 28, 2009My third 3.9 in a row!!!!!!!! haha Anyway, I liked this beer very much. A nice looking beer with a great big head. Smell is lightly funky, and a little unforgivably skunky. The flavor is spicy, and sharply bitter, with just a little funk. The beer has a mouth feel very similar to champagne. BuckeyeSammy (456), Cleveland, Ohio, USA
