Apr 6, 2008 My opinion the best Belgian Ale made in the United States. The appearance is a good copper color, the flavor is incredible which will turn your palate upside down, overall fantastic, you won’t mind paying the $12 a bottle or up to $28 at some restaurants.

Apr 5, 2008 Updated: Jun 3, 2009super dry and yeasty, like a saison should be. fruit flavors or hops are not prevelant, only a delicious bread like yeast. amazing that americans can produce such accurate depictions of belgians, great brew!

Apr 4, 2008 Bottle; poured a hazy gold with terrific white, rocky head with great retention. Aroma of flowers, fruit, and clove.
Flavor of malt, clove, with fruity notes with medium body and medium carbonation......Very good beer!

Apr 4, 2008 Bottled, alc.?, bottle says 7.5 % and 8.5 %
Hazy pale yellow color, white head. Very fruity, sweetish, slightly hayish and papery hoppy aroma. Sweetish fruit sugar flavor, alcoholic, some pepperness. This is American style saison - too sweet for my liking.

Apr 4, 2008 Bottled. Hazy yellowish golden colour, small white head. Aroma is fruits, yeast, alcohol and some spices. Flavour is very much the same, with the alcohol giving a really sweet sting. Also some toffeeish notes. Strange.

Apr 4, 2008 Quite spicy, with citrus and malt flavors that sort of remind me of an octoberfest. I think it was a good introduction to this style.

Apr 1, 2008 Cloudy yellow with a large white slowly diminishing head. Aroma was mildly sour with yeast, spice and citrus. Sweet lemon & yeast tasting with a light citric hop finish. Decent but not terribly exiting.

Mar 30, 2008 OK for a saison. Spicy, yes, but kind of crudely so. Also there is a cloying banana flavor. The mouthfeel, which I can only describe as articulate, is a positive. While this is beter than a good many American versions of the "Saison" style, it can’t approach Dupont, Pipaix, or Fantome. It’s just not as complex or satisfying.
