May 31, 2009 I enjoyed this one during our tenth wedding anniversary and it worked well with a cold end of May night and its warm yeasty texture with some bitter hops in the background (hallertauer? German?). The rye really works with this one and seems to meld well with the sweetness without creating an odd bready sensation I’ve gotten with other beers which utilize rye. Dry and a lot of carbonation (big head).

May 19, 2009 Bottle from spark27! Nice bright orange color, followed by a monster head that took a while to settle. Classic saison aroma of yeasty, dirt and earthy notes. With a sourish brett in there as well. Taste is the same, yeasty and earthy. This one had just the right touch of brett in there, not to sour or over powering. Nice carbonation level. Smooth and easy to drink. Wish I had another bottle. Oh well... Thanks E!

May 5, 2009 Pours a hazy orange with 3 fingers of foamy active fluffy ice cream cone head. I turn my back and come back expecting the head to have settled and its now more like 4 or 5 fingers of head and a inch above the top of the glass. Aroma is spices, yeasts, bretty funk, esthers, pepper, citrus, malt. Flavor is esthers, bretty funky goodness, spices, malt, yeasts, some bitterness and citrus, grass and sulfur. Really nice Saison.

May 3, 2009 750mL Bottle. Spicy, floral aroma with some pepper, saffron, and
a hint of lavender. Nicely spice-filled, which I’m
guessing is coming from the rye. Pours a clouded
amber-orange-tinted gold, with a foamy tall white
head. Flavor has a strong spiced white wine
character. A mulled sensation. Peppery. Vinous.
This is very complex. The Brett melds in real well
with the spicy character of the beer. Lots of
complex sophisticated fruit and herb. Alcohols are
a bit brisk, but make the profile of the beer more
electric. Dry. A really good, complex, unique
twist on a Saison.
