Apr 9, 2005 Murky orange-ish brew. Citrus nose, not from hops type citrus but the fruits. Medium/light body. Mildly spiced. Pretty enjoyable.

Apr 9, 2005 Aroma is yeast, citrus, peach and apricot, hazy apricot colour, tiny custard head. Taste is musty lemon, peach, and yeast. Light bodied, easy drinking, mildly tart. Very good, but could use some spice?
Thanks a lot wohlfs.

Apr 8, 2005 12oz 2005 - Solid opening waft followed by gentle cirus notes added to the belgian yeast. Cloudy orange with a small white quickly disapating head, litttle lacing. Flavor is of a very smooth belgian yeast and malt with a touch of lemon. Lasting flavor that asks for more. Overall a nice smooth ale that would taste great anytime of year.

Mar 31, 2005 Not quite the classic Saison taste I expected but still an interesting beer. Cloudy orange appearance with some farm house aroma to it. Tastes like they used sweet orange instead of bitter. Too many Fat Tire tastes for my palette to distinguish this as a stand out. I wonder how different the other Saison they make is?...will have to make a trip to the brewery to find out!!!

Mar 31, 2005 This looks and smells just like a hefeweizen. This has got some lemon zest in it, I believe. This is definitely good, but has an odd aftertaste that lingers, but only in the center of the tongue.

Mar 29, 2005 Golden/orange pour with a good head initially but it diminishes quickly. A nice refreshing flavor profile with a hint of orange peel in a body that’s not too light or dark.

Mar 29, 2005 Medium, hazy orange, decent but quickly fading head. Hard to get an aroma off of this, very faintly of wheat and oranges. Flavors were muted and subtle, not like the Belgian Saisons that are so much more in your face. The "unidentified flying yeast strains" lent an odd, sour off note at the end, almost reminiscent of a spoiled batch of homebrew. Too bad, as I had really been looking forward to trying this. Thanks to TannerTavernBoys for giving me the chance to sample!

Mar 27, 2005 12 oz bottle, goblet. Soft and subtle nose...wheat, bready yeast, lemons, pepper. Medium gold hue, with a short foamy white head. Moderately sweet, lightly acidic flavor becomes a lighlty sweet, lightly acidic, lightly bitter finish. Medium body, watery texture, average carbonation. The bottom line is: doesn’t have the same oomph that a lot of belgian saisons do.
