Pours a pale hazy yellow gold with medium white head, decent lacing. Aroma decent of hops, yeast, spices, light malt, and some herbal notes. Flavor matches well and has the right amount of tartness without dominating, making for a wonderfully refreshing brew. Another great one from JP.

Dec 27, 2009 Bottle.
The beer had an attractive appearance, the fluid was cloudy and yellow. The foam was large, white and fluffy.
Nice, slightly sour aroma. Wheat, citrus maybe even some apples?
The flavor was very fresh and refreshing. Soap, grass, spices, carbonation was lively and liquid was dry. A wonderful saison that had a nice balance between sourness and bitterness. Great!

Dec 20, 2009 Bright yellow colour with a thin offwhite head and very nice lacing. Nice Belgian brett funk, citrus lemony and orange peel, with slight dried appricot aroma. Flavor follows aroma, with mild brett yeast funk, floral esters, and traces of clove and tartness. Very light on alcohol with balanced vegetal, spice and sweet citrus finish. Very nice example of saison style,
