| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 2/5 | 14/20 | Jul 21, 2009 Bottle. Hazy straw color with a pretty big white head. Aroma’s of wheat, other grains, and some spiciness. Mostly spices and bread, very little hop bite. Somewhat sticky, though still refreshing. A nice beer to rotate into a session, but too much sweetness to be sessionable itself. kp (8500), Woodstock, Georgia, USA

| 3.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Jul 18, 2009 A lightly hazed yellow saison with a thick off white head. In aroma, a nice spiced wheat with cloves, berries, light solvent notes. In mouth, a refreshing silky saison, with cloves, light bananas, and oily finish. Good and clean.

| 3.5 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Jul 17, 2009 On tap at Sheffield’s in River Grove, Il. Pint served a straw/golden hue with a white foamy head that diminished fairly quickly to a bubbly layer but left some ribbons of lacing. The aroma was a fresh nose of soft malt, light fruit, lemon, and grassy hops. The flavor added a hint of sweetness, soft malt, and a subtle hop bitterness. Medium to light body, crisp, with lively carbonation, and a nice dryness to the finish. Braudog (3778), Dayton, Ohio, USA
| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 9/10 | 5/5 | 15/20 | Jul 15, 2009 22 oz’er. Nice pour -- bright golden orange with an initial fizz that settled. The aroma was pleasant and a bit yeasty, bright and fruity. This drinks pleasantly enough, light but flavorful, with a nice character that would go well with any fresh vegetable, egg dish, or even a light poultry dish. Excellent.

Grassy hops, yeast, and lemon flavor. A bit milder and sweeter with less funk than most saisons I’ve had before.
