| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | May 29, 2007 Pours a hazy light golden with a small head. Aroma is wheat, light spices and citrus with some hints of floral. Flavor is sort of bland. Mild malts, hops and spice. Nothing outstanding but still pretty solid.

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | May 13, 2007 Picked up a bottle from Bob’s McFarland Liquors, in McFarland, WI. Pours a hazy honey yellow brew with a fizzy white head that dissolves quickly to a thin film. Lacing is thin. Aroma has scents of popcorn, orange peel, sour apples, and vanilla powder. Taste is fizzy carbonated, yeasty orange/lemon palate, and light bodied. Palate is where the honey kicks in with some yeast aftertaste. The finish is a bit light/watery and dry. Almost a light Belgian Ale character beer than a Saison. beerbuzzmontreal (2921), Montreal, Quebec, Canada
| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Jan 30, 2007 Hazy yellow pour with a thin creamy white head. Good aroma of fruits, noble hops and pepper. Good flavor of noble hops, fruits and pepper with a good belgian farmhouse character, it also feels mildly lactic. The body has a medium thickness with an oily texture and moderate carbonation. A very interesting saison. 19641948 (491), Greensboro, North Carolina, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Jan 26, 2007 Pours a tarnished gold. Plenty of solids left in the glass at the end of the pour, yet still exhibits a cloudy appearance. Milky white head; slim and tight. Laces in wet sloppy bunting. Subtle ginger aromatics. Tangerine. A slight funk present, but nothing outlandish. Ginger ale flavors wash over the tastebuds. Spicy crisp hoppiness. Hard water tones. Spritzy at times. Enigmatic at other times with German hefeweizen notes. Waffles between Belgian and German. Quite odd. Tasty, but just...odd. ElGaucho (1730), Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA
| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 5/5 | 14/20 | Dec 19, 2006 GTM ’06. Draught. Fresh fruit aroma. Cloudy dark yellow. Like a hefeweizen. Not quite dark enough orange for a hefe. Thin, white head. Light. tiggmtl (4311), Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | Dec 12, 2006 Pineapple and banana fruitiness are dominant in the nose with underlying hay, grain and cheese notes. Fruit seems overripe and builds nicely as it warms. Hazy blonde body is topped by a decent white head that recedes to a partial cover with some lacing. Banana, wheat, citrus flavours blend harmoniously with mild but notable spicy character and herbal, haylike hops. Undercurrent of funky overripe fruit and old cheese. Light body is fluffy in texture with decent, soft bubbled carbonation that awakens the tongue. Going Away Party. ryan (1781), Beltsville, Maryland, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Nov 14, 2006 Pale straw body with a medium sized off-white head. The aroma is banana, corriander, grassy hops and orange. The flavor is overwhelmed by ginger and orange peel, some cheese, grass, lemon, and sugar. The mouthfeel is light with sharp, biting carbonation. Sammy (4049), Toronto, Ontario, Canada
| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Oct 16, 2006 A witbier more than a saison, yeast and wheat aroma. Great sourness. Creamy smooth mouthfeel to compensate. My first Lake Louis. Thanks JPM30.
