Nov 2, 2009 Cask at GBBF. Cloudy orange with a small white head. Aroma of banana, yeast and grass. Dryish malty flavour with strong yeast notes, and some pine and grassy. Room for improvement

Nov 1, 2009 another check mark in the smuttynose big beer series list. Poured with a hefty head and a deep yellow color that got more orange on the second pour from my 22oz bomber. Nice carbonation clinging to the side of my glass. Up front the smell was a great fruitiness but than it surrendered to some metallic and slight earthy smells. Taste was again fruity like pears with some spice. Sharp carbonation for a solid palate.

Oct 22, 2009 22 oz bottle. Musty floral aroma, citrusy, peaches, wild flowers, with sweet malts on the nose. Pours a cloudy golden blonde with a solid white head that dissipates. Very floral flavor like the aroma, spicy citrus, corriander and grains of paradise, starfruits and kumquats, a lot of tropical fruit flavors. There’s a lot going on in the flavor, maybe a little too fruity. Not bad.

Oct 22, 2009 22 oz. bomber at redlight redlight. Pours cloudy and translucent pale orange. Thin head. Could use a lot more carbonation. Lots of earthy yeast and citrus, particularly mandarin oranges in the nose. The flavor is spicier than I expected: coriander, etc. Tasty beer but not nearly enough carbonation.

Oct 21, 2009 sample from the bottle at The 2009 Great Decatur Beer Festival on 10/17/09... pours a clear golden color with a white head... tart nose and finish... some spice, light coriander over the body and a very clean finish with a splash of yeast... very drinkable and enjoyable Saison.

Oct 18, 2009 Light golden pour with a huge puffy dish wash soap foam. Smells yeasty. Lemon, citrus. I’m thinking of juicy starburst candy. Solid for the style.
