Nice saison and definitely hands and feet better quality than the overly uninspiring Paper City lineup. It would be nice to see a quality brewer coming out of Western Mass making more than silly one-off beers to rival BBC and People’s Pint.

Dec 3, 2009 On tap at Rattle’n’Hum. This is a dry, sharp saison. I could taste some vanilla and wheat, and some sourness and pine/menthol hop flavors too. Slightly herbal aftertaste. Complex and tasty - definitely a superior saison.

Nov 29, 2009 Blonde with a rich creamy head. Grassy and clean, indistinct herbal-tinged aroma redolent of new spring. Earthy, herbal flavors, perhaps of wintergreen? Fairly high amounts of European hops. Lightly peppered and phenolic with a crisp, bitter-sour, tannic herbal finish.

Nov 26, 2009 Pour is orange with a huge large bubbled white pillow like head. Floral notes with spices and fruit. Very nice nose. Flavor is a bit muted, but otherwise very nice. Flavor really mimics the nose. A different take on the saison style, but quite nice. Good effort overall.

Nov 24, 2009 Draught. It was like a saison, but with way too many hops poured into it. I thought it was decent but not for the style.

Nov 24, 2009 Draft. Pours gold with a white head. Lightly sweet aroma with some spicy hints. The flavor has a peppery spicy note that rubs me slightly the wrong way. Light earthy notes and a light sweetness, followed by a pleasant dry finish. Decent.

Nov 21, 2009 22 oz bottle, Batch 7, Pours a hazy orange/gold color with a 1/2" white head and a bit of spotty lace. Aroma is yeasty with a light citrus touch. Also a bit of hop aroma as well. Lively palate with a medium body. Flavor is light citrus, orange, lemon, apricot, with a peppery/spice background. Overall, an interesting brew.
