Aug 23, 2008 Pours hazy golden with white head. Aroma is yeast, spices and bread. Taste is spicy with yeasty flavor. Mild notes of honey and lemon. Favors a saison. Decent but they have brewed much better.

Aug 23, 2008 Updated: Feb 4, 2009Bottle shared by a generous local. Poured a hazy yellow color with a thick white head that slowly faded to a layer and left some lacing. Saison-like yeastiness on the nose with some spices and a hint of honey. Lightly spicy entry with some sweet honey undertones lead into a moderate yeastiness with a hint of straw, as well as some bitter hop dryness and a light lingering mixture of sweet and sour. Smooth with a decent spicy bite.

Aug 22, 2008 Thank Our Dark Prince for BDR! Hazy golden color with a large head. Yeast and candi sugar. Slight grain. Noble hop, some spiciness. Dry grain. Very dry finish. Vegetal. A little grassy. Lovely.

Aug 22, 2008 Pours dirty gold-orange with a puffy and creamy white head. Aroma of grass, raw dough, some sourdough bread, and maybe a bit of cloves, but it seems a bit hard to tell. Is the Chimay glass not trapping enough aroma? Tastes grassy right away, quickly followed by a honey sweetness, lemon, cloves, hay, lots of earthy hop flavor. Some chardonnay-like flavors too. Finishes with a sort of champagne-like flavor, grass, lots burnt sourdough bitterness lingering and yeah, it is quite dry on the back. Well carbonated, medium bodied, and nicely creamy, this beer also hides its heat. It’s good and all, but I don’t think it offers much new in the world of golden ales or hoppy tripels. Perhaps it wasn’t meant to...
