Light spiciness and a touch of grapefruit as well. There is a bit of banana on the top as well. Quite sweet which is always a turn-off for these types of beers.

| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | May 5, 2009 DLD 2009, thanks to [RBian ?]: It poured a hazy orange body with a slender white head. The aroma was tart tangerine, pink grapefruit, and a touch of honey. The flavor was much the same with the addition of a light herbal bitterness. I’m surprized at the higher ABV, but I s’pose the "Super" had to have some meaning. Rciesla (3830), Exit 15W, New Jersey, USA

Pours a golden body with a white head. Dry earth y bread y notes with a subdued citrus and spiciness. Spruce and more earth y tones. not bad. daknole (3027), Scottsdale, Arizona, USA
| 3.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 14/20 | Apr 28, 2009 Another DLD sample. Amber pour. Light head. Honey notes and a lack of funky lead me away from the saison style. But the flavor is nice. It is a bit funky, but with more syrup and honey notes. There is a tartness in the beer. But more sweetness than anything. Not bad. BMan1113VR (2943), Los Angeles (and Dallas), Texas, USA

Aroma is grassy and citrus hops. A bit bready. Taste is hoppy and grainy with some honey. Water like mouthfeel with extremely lively carbonation.
