Sep 14, 2008 Updated: May 12, 2009Bottle thanks to SoLan, thanks for the hook up man!. Poured a hazy golden-orange color with a thick, dense white head that slowly receded to a layer and left nice lacing. Aroma of yeast, some light wheat/straw, citrus (orange peel, light lemon, and apricot), some light barnyard, and floral hops. Crisp, lightly funky entry with some straw and soft undertones of orange and lemon with a hint of peppery spice leading into a dry yeasty finish with some lightly spicy, floral hops and a touch of fruitiness. Crisp and dry on the palate, something it seems a lot of American saisons aren’t. Very nice beer, and thanks again Alan. I need to get my hands on another bottle or 2.

Sep 13, 2008 Light orange color with a beautiful, authentically Belgian, well lasting foam. Dry, barnyard aroma, with hints of leather, horse, dough, with some spiciness as well. Solid flavor composition. Well made, with hints of spice, pepper, farmhouse. It’s not a complex beer, but a nicely crafted offering.

Sep 13, 2008 Updated: Sep 14, 2008750ml bottle again shared by drewbeerme....pours a golden hazy yellowelixir with a substantial soapy white head.... very clean aroma of pineapple and citrus with a decent degree of mustiness to it..... flavors are crisp with clean citrus flavors and a very nice dry finish....normally not a fan of saisons as most are way too spiced. really drinkable and a standout for the style for me.
