Aug 10, 2008 A Mes rate: Bottle at Chris O’s Pre GBBF Tasting
Dark cloudy brown with a thin beige head. Biscuit and caramel aroma with a delicate sourness. Heavy caramel in the flavour but in a really good way. Again a slight sourness bringing through the saison characteristics. A very interesting beer.

Aug 6, 2008 Had this at Chris O’s pre GBBF tasting, 02-08-08 cheers for a wonderful day Chris Pours dark brown with beige head. Really very fizzy in the mouth, nice sweet and sour taste in the mouth quite tingy. This is a refreshing beer that carries some maltiness through, touch of citrus touch of chocolate its really quite nice.

Aug 4, 2008 Bottle at Chris_o pre GBBF Shindig 08. Hazy black/dark brown. Thin beige head. Smells of salt and vinegar crips. Bit of sourness, some hop. Odd to have a dark saison. It’s like a saison but with chocolate. Tasty, if odd.

Jul 11, 2008 Four-year-old bottle, thanks Sammy. Insane head on this. Dark caramel brown and cloudy, sourish barnyard smells mingle with mocha. Puckering lime, salts, champagne yeast in flavour -- weird combo of sour Flemish with a cheesecake-sweet barley wine. Truly unusual, definitely great.

Jun 20, 2008 750ml I got via trade, not sure with who, but relatively recently. 3rd beer of the tasting I hosted tonight, shared with bikesandbeer, wetherel and my girlfriend Cyn. Porus dark blackish brown with a tan ring. Nose is smokey and peppery. Taste is sweet and peppery, tart, sour strange and intriguing.
