Tap at their tap room in London. Overwhelming peanut profile in this for me. Diluted wee colour. Fruity / grassy hops

Draught Huge, very dense & fine fully hazy straw-coloured beer; rings of lace. Intense citrus nose, lavender, bay leaf, rosemary, even sage. And yes, Eugene is right, I get a whiff of salicylic acid. Sweet-bready, spicy, and a very light acidity... aspirin? Again lots of spices and a bit floral. Light body, spritzy carbonation, A wee bit overspiced for a saison, but quite OK after all.

Draft glass @ Beerlovers Bar. Golden, small white head. Nose is weird medicinal aspirin in a bitter way, bitter spoiled lemon peel. Taste is very weird bitter medicinal aspirin, chemical, anesthesia, spice, low yeast,… Crisp dry anesthesia body. Quite strange hop profile. Bit too much.

Paoured hazy gold incl. yeast from the bottle and left a foamy white head that soon faded. Aroma is floral with a hint of pineapple juice set atop a sweet malty base with both spice and rubbery hints. Taste has a lightly tart start that moves sweeter and spicier going into the finish. Overall light bodied, mild, refreshing. Nice.

Tap @ van Moll, 10 cl sample. Slight hazy golden color, short frothy head. Aroma of some grainy malt, bit white wine, flowery hops. Bit dry in taste, slight bitter, medijm spicy. Saisons are not made for tap imo, and UK brewers make them a bit too spicy unfortunately, even though BBNo is a splendid brewery.
