Bottle from mcbackus, big thanks Matt! Nice cloudy yellow pour with huge white foam, beautiful meringue-like foam with nice retention and great lacing. Peppermint, dusty yeast, lemon peel and white wine in the aroma. Absolute bone dry deliciousness, just a hint of granny smith apple and a very well restrained bubble gum character. There are spices, but I can’t figure them out. I love that, much better than getting assaulted with a spice cabinet. Seriously drinkable. Love it.

Nov 1, 2009 Corked and caged 750 ml bottle. Cork explodes with a loud KAPOW and ricochets off my kitchen ceiling, producing quite a gusher. It finally decants into a goblet a hazy burnished gold body with a tall vanilla head that deposits some lavish lace. Aroma has dusty spices, herbal and grassy hops, and a hint of lemon. Spritzy carbonation. Taste has a dry herbal hop dominance, subtle pilsner malt, white pepper, lemon tartness, and some champagne character. Carbonation is a bit overdone, but this is a solid effort. I had no idea this was brewed in Florida when I scored it.

Oct 25, 2009 bottle, pours a hazy light yellow with a tall frothy white head, nice lacing. Very lively. Aroma is grassy, some floral hop notes....smells like a tripel. Solid pale malts mix with peppery hop and alcohol. Nice lingering spicy bitter finish with a nice alcohol burn. Solid saison.
