Feb 10, 2002 Very pretty color and head. Citrus comes out in the end. Nice hops-malt combo.

Apr 1, 2002 A beautiful cloudy orange color and a nice head that leaves a decent amount of brussels lace on the glass. Kind of hoppy with a smooth malty finish. The oats and wheat aren’t too obvious. The lemon verbena adds a nice little zest, but grows a bit irritating after you put a few of these down.

Mar 9, 2004 Orange bodied, spicey and full of citrus fruits in the nose. Body is full of soft carbonation, but nice flavors - sweet malts, coriander - dry finish with lots of citrus around the edges. Good saison.

Aug 8, 2005 Poured a hazy yellow gold. Aroma of bubble gum, yeasty, touch of funk. Flavor was mildly tart and fruity with a hop bitterness on the finish. Lively on the tongue.

Jul 14, 2003 Updated: Sep 25, 2005Warm, honey-colored body with medium carbonation and a tight sudsy white head. Interesting and novel citrus character presumably from both the yeast and lemon verbena. Nice peppery edge. Moderate plastic phenols. Lightly toasted, biscuity malt underbelly with honey tones. Fruity esters suggesting sweet bananas come to the front in the flavor. Considerable malty character for a saison with hints of butter and nuts. Also has a light woody character and a nice subtle touch of barnyard. Long finish with some mild but noticeable hop flavor and bitterness. Seems like it could be drier and fuller. Has a slight syrupy effect on the tongue. Does seem to dry out and improve with some modest cellaring. This is an enjoyable and unique beer overall that’s always worth revisiting from time to time.

Feb 18, 2004 Hoppy nose, light golden/orange color, fluffy head, mildly hoppy flavor with hints of citrus and maybe even a little love.

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.
