Looks very much like a saison. Nice orange color with LOADS of carbonation bubbles assaulting the beer. Aroma is quite peppery, spicy, and a nice tart sourness to it. Flavour is much of the same, and the pepper really comes through, very nice saison.

Jun 1, 2007 750ml corked bottle. Pours a cloudy yellow with a huge white head and monstrous lace. Looks saisony. Obnoxious bubbles streaming from the bottom of the glass. Beautiful saison smell: vanilla, spices, pepper, slightly funky, tart and sweet. Taste is quite peppery and citrusy. Zingy(?) but smooth. Quite easy to drink and nicely balanced. I see they use black pepper in this. That is very apparent. Don’t know if it can hold up the best Belgians in the style but definitely the best American Saison I’ve had.

May 31, 2007 Bu au Mondial 07. Blonde peu brumeuse, moyen collet. Arome d’herbe malté agréable. Goûtgoût d’herbe végétale malté intéressant, avec un certain zeste fruité délicieux.

May 31, 2007 750ml - thanks Foolish_Mortal - Aroma of bready yeast, orange zest, spicy incense like aroma of ginger and pepper. Pours transparent gold with a medium head and great lacing. Flavor is snappy spice and tart citrus. Yeasty finish smooths it out. Palate is crisp and tart. Before I read the description, I was going to say that this was a tame version of SPF45, interesting. A good American saison but I perfer the old world funk to the intense spice.

May 30, 2007 Pours a hazy orange almost gold look with a bubbly white head that didnt last. Smells of oranges, hops, spice, lemons, and sweet light malt. Alot going on. Taste was mostly sweet malt with hints of citrus flavors, hops, and spice. Very refreshing.
