Bottle shared at Leighton’s place. 25/08/2015. Thanks to Leighton. Hazed dull orange coloured pour with a lasting frothy off white head. Aroma is sharp lemon, bready, doughy bready. Flavour is composed of sharp tangy doughy wheat, orange rind, bready wheat, banana, and some berry. Palate is high spritzy carbonation, abrasive, grainy. Dry finish.

Bottle thanks to Leighton. It pours cloudy golden - orange with a thick white head. The nose is pretty sweet, banana candy, clove, marshmallow, apple, pear melon and icing sugar. The taste is crisp, bitter, toasty grain, cereal, light banana, clove, toasty and cereal with a dry finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Not bad at all. Thought it might be too sweet, but not.

Bottle shared in Lpndon - picked up at the Lab. Pours hazy gold, heavily effervescent, with a dense white cream head. Big saison yeast and estery aroma, some dry wheat, light zesty lemon. Medium sweet flavor with doughy wheat bread, yeast, melon, straw. Light to medium bodied with active carbonation. Finishes with light alcohol warmth, sweet wheat bread, more saison yeast, light bitter straw, citrus fruits, melon, very slight lemony tang. Good stuff.

Bottle that Jim got at London Beer Lab & shared- cheers! Amber with a lasting cream head. Smooth Belgian banana yeast and malt loaf are balanced by a peppery spiciness. Excellent saison, got better the more I drank.
