Jun 22, 2009 750 mL bottle from Liquor Mart in Boulder, CO (purchased October 2008). Pours golden yellowish-orange with a thick, creamy white head. Aroma of yeast, bread, and citrus. A slightly sour nose is present. Beautifully balanced flavor. A very nice saison.

Jun 14, 2009 Bottle... Poured golden with a thin white head. Highly spiced, very sweet aroma, like a Fall season dessert. Light and crisp palate -- very refreshing and easy to drink. Big yeasty notes and spiced grains, like salt and pepper, with herb or vegetable-like squash characters.

Jun 13, 2009 Nce nose - just a little spice, tart, some fruit. Tastes initially light spicy wit-like, then a nice tart peppery-flavor with some hops and a hint of hay. Finishes surprisingly hot, helped by the lack of carbonation (in my short RB career - this seems to be an LA tademark) and overall mouthfeel just isn’t that great. Good, not great.

Jun 13, 2009 750ML 2008 Bottle-trade w/hillbilly-Hazy yellow/orange pour w/a moderate white head. Dry spiced aroma. Thick, chewy flavor of ginger, citrus, light fruit, white pepper, honey & bread dough. Had some sweet malt/molasses in the background to balance this out. Very smooth & easy to drink, kind of wheat like, but not overly so. Another good beer from these folks, Thanks Joshua!!!

Jun 10, 2009 Bottle from TexasJeep at the Houston sour tasting. Thanks, man! Pours a deep, thick cheddar orange with a nice white head. Aroma is bready orange biscuit. Flavor is syrupy molasses bread with a hint of sharp cheddar. Thick mouthfeel. Pretty good.

May 31, 2009 750 mL bottle. Pours slightly hazy golden yellow with small, dense whitish head. The aroma is light spice (coriander, pepper, mint), green apple, some sweet honey notes, a bit of citrus, and a distant cellar must. The flavor is a little stronger on the spice end. The ginger is pretty obvious, with detectable orange and pepper. A dry earthiness underlies the spices, with a sort of faint tropical fruitiness in the background. The finish is a bit dry with another gingery spice kick that lasts for quite some time into the aftertaste. Pretty good, and definitely refreshing, but in my opinion the spices are quite overdone.

May 28, 2009 Bottle. This beer did not live up to expectations. Was expecting a beer similar to Saison Dupont. Beer was refreshing and smooth but the flavor wasn’t up to par.
