I can smell little more than the funk. Light in color big head that sticks around for about 3 minutes than dissipates quickly. Hyperactive bubbles. Tarter than other saisons I tried. Slight skunk. Slight bitterness. Sticky, tingly mouth feel. Carbonation feels more soda like than I am used to. It also kinda dries out my mouth. Overall it’s good. Not my favorite saison but good.

as soon as I unraveled the wire cage and removed from the bottle, the cork shot off like a mofo and pinged the cieling tiles! this beast wanted out but I covered the bottle with my hand after the shock of the cork. the body was gloudy and golden yellow, with a thickish foamy mostly white head. aroma is yeasty, wheaty malt, and spicy, but smelled metallic from a distance. straw and grassy too. flavor is dryish pale malt, yeasty and wheaty. faintly tart and fruity like apricot. sourdough bready finish.

Bottle from Hopduvel, Gent. Poured a cloudy pale orange with a rocky, white head. Aromas of yeast, pears and herbs. Flavours of citrus, spice and the farmyard with a dry, earthy finish. An interesting Saison.

Brux07. Pours a hazy yellow with a large, frothy, light head and some nice lacings. Moderate to heavy sweetness with a light bitterness. More sourness as it ages in the glass. Light malt aromas with some hay. Light perfumed and grassy hops notes. Quite earthy. Also light appley and coriander hints. Medium to full bodied with a lively carbonation that kinda explodes in the mouth.

Yhe color is gold with a short lasting beige head. The aroma and taste is of hops and coriander. Even if spicies are in the taste there are very light. A bit to watery for me.

Lovely pale gold wearing a big hat of mousse. Big farmy aroma of barnyard, horseblanket, straw, wheat. Light and lively mouthfeel, very dry, with bready, lemony flavor. Dry and hoppy finish. If spelt makes a beer this fine, maybe more brewers should play with it.

Hazy pale blond body with average carbonation and a huge white frothy head. Good hoppy aroma with coriander hints. Very sharp hoppy taste that carries herbal notes. Ends with a long, dry bitter finish. Without being complex, this is a very enjoyable Saison.
