Jun 19, 2005 An unclear orange beer with a small white head. The aroam is very sweet and spicy, while the flavor is sweet and very spicy combined with lesser notes of yeast and alcohol.

Nov 23, 2004 Notes are hazy, from Dr. Bill’s post GABF party at Falling Rock 10/2/04... Poured a deep golden color with a medium sized off white head. If I could understand my notes, i’d be better off. I can understand "a very average saison". Seems to be about what everyone else has said about this beer.

Feb 6, 2005 Tap @ Toronado. Golden color with a diminished white head. I picked up vanilla and toffee flavors. Neither a powerful aroma nor flavor but a good drinkin’ beer. Clean and smooth.

Nov 26, 2004 Draft. Golden-amber color with a little white head. Malty aroma. Flavor is very fruity, malty, and even more fruity. Finish is dryer than I’d have imagined.

Nov 16, 2004 Golden color, not much head. Malty, sweet aroma. Taste is just as the discription- pure pale malt. Becomes somewhat grainy, if you can handle that. Alcohol is well masked, mainly because this is overly sweet. Interesting I guess, maybe a little too one diminsional.

Dec 11, 2004 This comes out the color of yellow pine, a few years worn. Light.
Little head, no lace.
Smells of barleycorn, and light barley malt. It strikes me as a little musty, like a new camembert.
Barley chew, yeah. A hop flower then the alcohol cuts over everything. Whoa, it’s sweet. It’s like beer hard candy. Umm. There’s some decent hop dryness to this that comes about after a few sips. That chewy barley strikes some nuttiness, pine nuts, raw virginia peanuts. The alcohol provides quite a bite. My wife loved this. I liked it. I could sip this for a good long while with friends.

Jan 16, 2005 Tasted at the StrongAlefest. Dark, very matly in the aroma. Somewhat festive in the flavor. A little citrus, spicy, sweet and a little dark fruit quality. Finish is clean and fairly smooth. An interesting beer I’m glad they brought it down, at least for something diffferent.
