Nov 7, 2007 An unclear golden orange beer with a medium-sized mostly diminishing beige head. Summerflowers, ginger and cardamom in the aroma. Whiffs of caramel and mild fruit esters. Taste is light malty, floral and spicy with a nice fresh and dry fruitiness. Medium body. Crisp finish. A lovely Saison (Bottle @ RBNAG’07)

Nov 4, 2007 Sampled thanks to drewbeerme. Pours a hazy orange with a tall beige head. Spicy aroma. Hops and floral herbs with a lot of yeast. The spicy nose subsides to become more malty. Similar flavors that seem overly spicy at first taste until the citrus and malts come forth to balance it well. Pretty tasty.

Nov 3, 2007 Bottle from trade with MaxxDaddy. Slightly cloudy dark straw color with a thin white head. Great aroma - a mix of white pepper and fresh floral/herbal earthiness. The lavender stood out of bit. Taste has a slight sour start with a great floral middle, light spice on the back end. Complex but refreshing.

Nov 3, 2007 #20 [Blind tasting @ Papsoe] Vintage 2005. Large wiped cream like white head. Muddy amber colour. Good display of lacework. First impression is an herbal / vegetable, / spice style beer. The herbal feel is maybe to overpowering for this brew. Notes of star aniseed, ginger, perfume and heavy soap like feel. Light underlying fruity and caramel notes. Medium bodied with a lively carbonation. Moderated sweet with light acidic flavour. Light sour soap like finish. 3 / 5 / 5 / 3 / 10 = 2.6

Oct 30, 2007 750ml bottle, thanks to theisti. Highly engaging aroma, very complex, full of yeast character and flowers with a multitude of fruits. Notes include honey, peach, tangerine, orange, pineapple, herbal spice, faintly peppery alcohol, bready, doughy yeast, anise, coriander, mint, lemongrass, incense...wow. Cloudy amber-golden color, translucent, with a sparse, fading head. Flavor is equally astounding, with touches of white wine, tropical fruitiness, massive waves of spice, pale malty sweetness, and a pleasant, lingering, gently acidic tartness at the finish. Palate is lightly effervescent, smooth and gently warming, medium-full bodied. Really amazing stuff, this is.
