Bottle. Pours an unclear orange with a medium white head and OK lacing. The aroma is citrus, clove, orange peel and yeasty phenols. The flavour is spice, citrus and bready yeastiness. Some tartness in the mouthfeel though good carbonation. A refreshingly dry finish. It’s an OK saison just a little subtle for my palate.

Hazy pale golden body with a short white head. Notes of lemon and some spice on the aroma. Soft pepper in the taste also wheat notes with not too much else. An easy drinking Saison but thats all.

Pours hazy blond with a very translucent bubbly head. The aroma has lemony tartness, some spice, grainy malt and Belgian yeast. Medium body that’s thin for the style with very mild carbonation. The flavor starts like the aroma with a bit more funkiness. The finish has more graininess and some smooth citrus. Interesting beer.

Bottle. Hazy orange beer. Citric and Lemon. A very nice beer, not at all what I was expecting for a Saison.

500ml bottle. Batch 350 Bottled 02.04.08 BB 02.04.13 Hazy orange body. Quite a small dense white head for the style. Somewhat fruit nose, pears, citrus, candy banana, fair bit of clove spice, possibly some coriander in the works. Cereal malts in the background. Subdued carbonation for style, full bodied, not as dry as expected with a slight sour note. Nice flavours on the body; grapefruit, pear, spice, bit of hay, vanilla and honey sweetness. Finishes quite bitter, lingering spice. Quite a nice beer, thought i’d go as far as to consider it a Belgian-style blonde, rather than a saison. Doesn’t really have the lively body, zesty spicy flavour or the "funk" you come to expect in a good Saison.

Hazy orange with a lasting white head. Aroma: Fruit, banana, raisin, malt, yeast, vanilla. Taste: Fruity, yeast, spicy (vanilla and coriander). Some hoppy bitterness too. Good and refreshing.
