750ml bottle. Aroma is a little oxidized, flavor is a little soured. Not one to age I suppose. Soured honey tinged notes. Not super impressive. Honey belgo beer. Unique. Sour dry notes.

Bottle. Gusher. Hazy deep maroon color, tan head. Aroma is complex and mysterious. Taste is toasted brownies. Hi carbonation interferes with the mouthfeel.

Bottle brought by myself to End of History tasting. Pours dark brown with beige head. Nose of roasted malt and honey. Tastes of honey, yeast, roasted malt, root beer, and cola. Fairly rustic offering and pretty tasty.

Some roast, some honey and a touch of astringency. Honey tempers some of the bitterness of this saison like beer. Finishes with some bitterness. Average carbonation. Not so syrupy in terms of texture. Pours dark brown with good head and lacing. Tap at some bar I can’t remember.
