Dec 24, 2004 This golden ale pours with a modest white head. The initial flavor is quite bitter and herbal, but the finish is more mellow. About halfway through the glass, I started enjoying it more.

Dec 20, 2004 Updated: Mar 29, 2005Would have liked a bit more complexity to this one, but it was still a nice and refreshing brew. A bit too flat in the ingredients department.

Dec 19, 2004 Very cloudy light orange-gold color. Thin milky white head gives way and rings the glass. Lovely aroma of fresh lemon, orange, and sweet apricot. Although I can’t see any bubbles through the murky glass this saison is pretty lively when it hits the palette. Lemon and candied orange peel dominate the initial taste giving way to a pleasantly balancing hoppiness, this is also when the sweetness of the alcohol kicks in. Nice and warming. Great saison, and its organic!

Dec 18, 2004 Updated: May 23, 2006Hmmm. Wonder if this has turned. Has been sitting at the store for quite a while. Strong skunk aroma when opened which I do not see mentioned elsewhere. Bright fluffy white head with great carbonation that keep a good head fopr the duration of the drink. Skunk has worn off and now has a plesant peach, yeast and wheat aroma. Color is a cloudy golden orange. Lively in the mouth from the carbonation. Some light fruit, yeast and a bit of spice. Finish is slightly warming. Pretty clean and dry with a slight lingering pepper taste. A good Saison brew. Was scared in the begining but turned out pretty good.

Dec 3, 2004 Great beer... pours a hazy, golden body with a rocky, persistant white head. Aroma of hops, fruits, apricots, and a bottom note of maltyness. Flavor is a little fruity, some nice hop character, and a touch of alcohol. Finishes with a nice medium mouthfeel and a bit of malt. My first Saison, I intend to try more.

Dec 3, 2004 Hazy light amber body with a sizeable and lasting head. There’s a lot of dried stone fruit in the aroma along with a hint of citrus. The flavor has the same fruit profile with something a little softer (pear maybe?). Toward the end you get a bit of dry hay malt despite the fact the rest of the beer is mildly sweet.

Nov 30, 2004 11.2 oz bottle - Whole Foods, Austin, Tx. Pours a bright golden to light orange with an extremely fluffy white merinque-like head and thick lacing. Aroma is yeasty, cake-mix like and sweet. Flavor has some brief buttery notes with a back end of lemon and some coriander. Mouthfeel is light and spritzy. Finishes strong. Would be good on a hot summer’s day.
