May 8, 2009 Why haven’t I rated this one yet??!!! Can, pours a pale orange color with a touch of lively carbonation and a bit of foam. Taste is pale malts, touches of Belgian yeasts and a bit of black pepper spice, also some grassiness in here. Nice addition of the oats, it thickens up the body a bit and gives it some texture. Overall a solid easy drinking session ale.

May 6, 2009 Can into a pint glass. Pale yellow color with a foamy head. Aroma is of pepper and that smell follows through to the taste along with honey and some fruit I can’t seem to place. This is my first beer of this style but man, what a way to start!

May 5, 2009 1 pt can courtesy of tyteranderso. Pours a slightly cloudy yellow-gold with a big sudsy white head that had great lacing and good retention. The aroma is more like a Belgian Witbier than a Saison; there is plenty of banana, some peach, white pepper and bread dough. The flavor is very similar to the aroma this a particularly fruity saison with apricots, peaches and banana. There is also a noticeable hop presence along with some peppery spices. The mouthfeel is smooth and light. The finish is medium in duration with lingering apricots. Overall: I really liked this one, a very tasty Saison.

May 3, 2009 Can via bonus from Scoobydank. Rating #300 of this beer. Pours a clear golden with a thick bubbly off white head. Belgium yeast, malt, honey and apricot on the nose. Apricot is most pronounced on the tongue with a strong yeast compliment. Honey and light bread notes too. Mouth is medium. Nice and refreshing for a sunny afternoon.

May 2, 2009 Can with thanks to Skyview. Pours a medium gold with a frothy head and lively carbonation. Aromas have a little funk, a little pepper, a little fruit and grass. Flavor is fairly interesting... and matches the nose fairly well. There is definitely more hops here than most saisons I’ve tried, but I like this better than most saisons I’ve tried, too.
