Jun 22, 2007 This was good. I wasn’t sure what it was while drinking it. Light, sweet hops in the aroma with citrus. Flavor has lemon, pine, and is fairly dry and moderately hopped. It is well hopped for the style, and seems to rely on hops rather than spices for flavor. Cloudy gold color. Thanks to Badgerben for sharing.

Jun 21, 2007 Nice golden amber color. The aroma is subtly spicy. Flavor follows similarly. Fairly dry, with just hint of sweetness on the finish.

Jun 21, 2007 Standard yellowish-orange. Has a great ginger aroma but the taste is esters, esters, and more esters. Actually too many esters really. Aside from that you get all kinds of spices mixed in. I definitely tasted the ginger, the pepper, the grains of paradise, and the orange. Oh ... and did I mention the esters ....

Jun 20, 2007 750mL bottle, Pizza Port / Port Brewing event at Brickskeller. Pours a hazy, yellowish orange color; fluffy, off-white head that coats the interior of the glass forever. Pleasant bready, estery aroma. Medium-to-full mouthfeel: bread and esters upfront; nice chewy belgian profile with a very fluffy texture; creamy, vanilla-tinged saison. Lengthy, creamy and vanilla and biscuity finish.

Jun 20, 2007 751 ml bottle. Muted olive-gold with a whipped bone head. Leaves lace drifts. Yeasty lemon peel, honey, ginger and white pepper. More substantial than expected with tiny carb. Bitter orange, honeydew pith and a touch of lime. Starts like a saison and finishes dry, like a tripel.

Jun 19, 2007 750 ml bottle. Thanks to drewbeerme for this. Pours a orange cloudy color with a tall white head. Spicy nose corriander, yeast, a little funk. Citrus fruit flavors drying spice with hints of pine. Finishes dry and tasty.

Jun 17, 2007 On tap @ the Liars’ Club - Pours a slightly hazy golden color with a small white head. Nice lacing. Aroma and flavor is spice, yeast, and esters (banana). Smooth palate. Medium body. Tastes more like a Wit than a Saison. Still, a very nice beer.
