Can from Livonia Liquor. Pours a clearish gold with full 2 fingers of soapy white head that lingers. Pils malt, yeast, banana esters and light citrus notes on the nose. Clean and dry on the palate, very refreshing. Banana with some grainy pils malt and wheat character with light mineral and starfuit on the palate. Finishes dry with a touch of sweetness. Lovely saison.

Tho there is sediment on the bottom of this bot, it pours crystal clear pale yale. Clean crisp aroma, almost metal but not. From my jack lambert steeler glass the first taste is rather impressive and lively. Clean alky impact with some burly presentation. Very good welcomed co2 in this. Lacks any ipa or lager hop inspirations. BTW, I don’t think lions nor cats usually eat baggets, so this must be a rare beer? $3 bottle at vintage, nice find. Gets better in the end.

Draft at Churchkey. Slightly hazy yellow color, bright white head with good retention and solid lacing. Aroma of black pepper and dusty lemon. Taste is overripe lemon. Decent.

12 oz. bottle from Star Grocery. It pours a lightly hazed yellow orange color with a frothy white head. The aroma is citrusy with orange, hints of vanilla and peppery spice. The flavor is peppery with orange and more velvety pale malt and vanilla notes. Pepper, orange and vanilla stand out most along with the velvety mouthfeel. Pretty good.

Bottle from Julio’s Deep yellow color smallish white head, moderate lacing. Sweet honey like maltiness with a moderate amount of earthy funk and some solid earthy citrus pine hop flavor. Very nice brew!
