Had this awhile back. Very nice aroma. It’s subtle at first but then a bit too much alcohol. A light character as to be expected. Pretty good overall.

Pours brown into a snifter. Fluffy beige micro head with good retention recedes to skim surface. Pit fruit and pepper aromas. Crisp and well balanced. Fruity upfront with a dry hops and sour brett finish. Quite nice.

750 ml bottle poured a clear deep reddish brown with beautiful creamy lasting amber head. Aromas of spices, banana, malt, teast and some herbal notes. Palate was light to medium bodied and smooth. Flavors of malt, spice, cheries, a hint of banana, yeast and a bit of herbs with a lingering lightly sweet finish. A complex and interesting Saison.

Pours with an orange-amber body topped by a very thick head with lots of lacing. It’s slightly sweet and malty with a nice sour, tart, barnyard note that is very evident in the nose, but also in the flavor. A slight grassy hoppiness also shows through. Medium bodied, crisp and smooth.
