Normally I’m not a big fan of this style, but this was delicious, just got better as it warmed, really good. JohnC (2285), Mission Viejo, California, USA

| 4.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 17/20 | May 18, 2009 On tap at the anniversary party. The regular Saison de Lente is a great saison. This was really great with the added brett funkyness. Some tartness and very crisp finish. I loved this one! mspindler (328), Alta Loma, California, USA
| 3.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | May 18, 2009 On tap at the anniversary party. pours a cloudy golden yellow with a big white head. Aroma is herbal, medicinal, vegetal, a real showcase of the brett. Horseblanket funk like crazy. Flavor is slightly tart and once again all kinds of barnyard. I also get some sort of sweet pound cake flavor in there and a bit of spiciness.. Dry and refreshing and you need to drink it fast because the craziness of the brett diminishes quicky as it airs out. Lots of carbonation. Pretty neat stuff. SamGamgee (1460), Santa Cruz (La Selva), California, USA
| 4.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 9/10 | 5/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 16/20 | May 18, 2009 Draught at the Bruery’s anniversary. Once I saw this on the tap list, it had to be my first beer of the day. Hazy yellow with a big pillowy white head that lasted for days. Popping fresh fruit, spicy, hoppy, dusty, hay, dough, and sweet-sour aroma. The flavor had nice bread and cracker malts with hoppy bite and a dry, spicy finish. Medium-light body with higher carbonation. The aroma on this just blew me away. The brett didn’t add much perceivable funk or tartness, but a great fruity character that put this above the regular version for me, though both are great beers.
