Pours out hazy goldish amber. Strong fruity smell, creamy white head. This is a very tasty saison, farmhouse stye belgium ale.

750 ml bottle courtesy of SoLan. Thanks bro!! Much anticipation upon opening, as I loved the Saison Athene by this brewery. Pours an appealing honey-orange body underneath a small white rim that disappears quickly. Nose qualities are similar to a saison: honey, citrus, and a subtle yeast skunkiness. Mouth flavors are almost subtler than the nose with similar notes of honey, estery spices, pear, and apple cider. Soft/medium carbonation, medium body. Extremely drinkable; no trace of the 8% ABV in the palate or character. A great beer.

i’ve run into so many disappointments lately. it is nice to have a pleasant surprise. dark brown orange pour with a thick gray head. sweet fruity nose with a bit of something that reminds me of fresh cut cilantro and limes. rich thick flavor that has some pineapple and mango with a prune sweetness that is wonderful. DEFINITELY A HIGHER GRAVITY BEER. THIS THINGS WARMS ME UP ON A COLD MORNING. , fuck you, capslock. warming dry finish that has a good lingering yeasty dough and orange flavors. 12 bucks a bottle and i do not feel ripped off. 5 8 8 5 17

Pours a pretty dark orange and brown with very minimal head off a careful pour. Nose is yeasty, funky, goodness. Flavor is full and even. Nice, fairly long lasting flavor ride. Noticeable sugar. Nice even spiced edge. This is just damn smooth. Great mouthfeel. Very drinkable. Amazing Belgian style production out of the U.S.

Pours a nice amber color. Smells of fruits, lemon zest, spices and yeast. Flavor is apple, figs, spices, belgian candy sugar and yeast. Medium body and sweet then dry finish. Great beer!

Finding this brewery and this beer has made my need to return to Belgium a bit less urgent. It’s clean, just dry enough, has a tiny edge of funk that I personally find very desirable. These guys are the closest decent brewery to my refrigerator. I’m going to do my best to get their product on the shelves of one of our local packey’s.

Apricots and bananas glazed in brown sugar, with violets added to the syrup, served on a warm plate of the color of desaturated orange.

Orangish brown color with thin head atop. Fruity and yeasty nose (apple/pear) with touches of light spice. Nice, crisp apple pie like flavors with some malty sweetness and a unique and refreshing apple cider like yeast profile. Very enjoyable flavors going on here.
