| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jun 7, 2009 22oz bottle. Pours a hazy gold. Its definitely a saison. Nose is yeasty sweet with light spiciness and lots of grassy, hay filled lemon notes. A somewhat off putting cleanser note is also present. Flavor has a great fruity light spicy flavor. Modest sweetness. Missing the spicy profile of the best saisons. A pretty solid effort from a pretty solid american brewery. halfonit (454), Fall River, Massachusetts, USA
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jun 5, 2009 Light gold color. Smells of pine and yeast. Sweet flavor with yeast undertones. Not too bad of a beer, just not my style. Hangover (768), Atlanta, USA

Nice, spicy flavor with a definite tart finish. High carbonation. Slightly fruity, yeasty aftertaste. Pretty good. RCL (1477), Waltham, Massachusetts, USA
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Jun 3, 2009 Pours a hazy gold. Just a wee bit of funk on the nose along with hay and lemon pith. Flavor is grainy with yellow fruits and a slight tart twinge. GMCC2181 (861), Bear/Elkton, Delaware, USA

Great saison... Light in texture with lots of carbonation. Overall a great beer. Thanks robert for sharing! HogTownHarry (4003), Toronto (Harbourfront), Ontario, Canada
| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jun 2, 2009 Bottle (22oz). Shared by tupalev with me, blankboy, garthicus and gregclow - did Jeff provide ALL the beer for this tasting?!!! Thanks again, Jeff!. Cloudy gold pour with a swirly, creamy off-white head (3+). Aroma of banana, pear, yeast, dry spice, some alcohol and plenty of grassy bitterness to tie it all together. The taste follows - lots of clover and lemon; tingly: good. Lively mouthfeel, fruity, yeasty, with a sweet fruity/spicy linger. And excellent hoppy (but not over-hopped) take on a saison - we quite liked it. troopie (878), USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jun 1, 2009 Bottle. Poured cloudy yellow with frothy white head. Aroma of spice, fruit and a yeasty whiff. Tart flavour, fruit, spice, citrus. Something off, not sure what, in the finish. Possibly the inclusion of rice in the mix. Refreshing on a hot day. JaBier (1219), Capital City, Ohio, USA
