Really a good beer. Hazy yellow clor with a big white head. I smell citrus, bread, and some light honey notes. Flavor is certainly tart, dry and some yeast. Nice beer on a hot day. allfreej (358), Louisville, Kentucky, USA

| 4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | Jul 18, 2008 Has anyone ever confused this with a hefeweizen? Color and palate seem very similar. I’ve had this beer plenty of times but my 1st rating of it when the beer is in front of me. Aroma is captivating. Some slight bitter and off flavors on the finish. Floral, hay, summer day in the mountains cool refreshing type of beer, yet still showing a lot of hops. Could see how this could be considered the model all other Saison’s are produced from. There is a weight and concentration I can’t remember any other Saison having. I believe the cork was branded with the year, 2008. Very nice feature.
