It was crisp and refreshing. The lemon is not overpowering, and the other flavors are well rounded. Sickboy282 (1098), San Diego, California, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Feb 18, 2004 Overall a little dissapointing. Pours a hazy orange/amber in color, with no head. Flavors of honey, and light citrus notes. The good note is that it goes down easy so I can try something else. DougShoemaker (2856), Toronto, Canada
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | 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. Murphy (1759), Fort Collins, Colorado, USA

The aroma isn’t too strong, but this is made up for in what’s really important, the taste. Fat tire might be a little better, but not by much. Brew4Dug (136), Houston, Texas, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Mar 23, 2005 Starts rather carbonated, but I let it sit after takinng what I felt was a pre-mature sip to sample. The lecitrusy aroma was increasingly evident as the ale warmed up to room temperature. However, the intent of an oat flavor was not felt on the palate as I sampled this ale. Overall, a refreshing and unique offereing from New Belgium. hoorayforbeer (105), Denton, Texas, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Mar 9, 2003 It looked good, but just seemed entirely too bland for a saison. The spices were very hard to find, and it didn't have much kick to it in general. There was a nice citrus flavor going on with a light malt finish, but all in all a bland beer. kyzr (1123), Belgrade, Montana, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Feb 17, 2006 Orange all over the place, in the color, nose and flavor. Nice citrus notes up front, when it warms up a little, it seemed to have a little honey flavor to it. Nice clean finish. pantani (1902), Salinas, California, USA
| 3.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 13/20 | Mar 21, 2006 Foggy amber orange color, faint white head. Aroma is citrus, floral notes, caramel, and dried fruit. Taste is slightly hoppy, with fruit and caramel accents.
