Bottle at Nuetnigenough. Lovely floral De La Senne aroma, Belgian graininess. Very nice. Taste is similar, subtle but delicious, quite bitter, leaves a tingle, Belgian yeastiness, light citrus, but quite dry. Just delicious. With the yeast at the end, tiny bit of caramel.

bottle expired 2 months ago - hazy pale yellow colour, large, white head; aroma of lemon zest, bread, citrusy-grassy and tropical fruity notes; taste is more intensive than the aroma with the same notes and some coriander, as well as tangerine and marmalade; great saison!

Flaska från belgiuminabox. Gyllengul, rejält disig med högt vitt skum. Lätt, frisk, krispig modern saison. Mjuk rund maltig botten med havrekakor och ljust bröd som passar bra med den välavvägda gräsiga humleprofilen som är tydlig med distinkt beska utan att ta över. Ett nytt lite meterverk av de la Senne.

330 ml bottle from Etre Gourmet, bottled 18 Feb 16.
Straw colored, hazy body, with a big, fluffy, lacing, white head.
Aroma of bread, grains, peppery spices, flowers, hay, some sweet fruits, some young cheese.
Taste follows this, with some more citric hops.
Medium, a bit creamy mouthfeel, with a lively carbonation.
Finishes medium dry, spicy, a bit bitter, floral, yeasty, bready, with some piney hops.
Tasty. A straight, old-school Saison, with a great balance and drinkability. Lovely rustic, smooth bready and spicy notes and just the right amount of sweetness, yeast notes and dryness. Not my favourite De la Senne Saison, but another very enjoyable one.
