Pours whitish pink, lots of haze. Fruity. Yuzu peels in the nose, juicy and a bit of saison funk. Taste is quite well balanced. Yuzu peels and some spices and even more yeast funk. Good stuff, another great usecase of local fruits.

Medium amber golden color. Soft soapy nose with lots of Yuzu zest and good yeasty character. Medium body, low bitterness. Modest bitterness. Not as dry or funky as I would like. Rounded mouth. Didn’t feel like the funkiness was there.

330 ml bottle, mail order from the brewery. Awesome saison nose, spicy farmhouse yeast, yuzu blending very well, bready malt, peppry spice. Deep, cloudy orange with a high, rocky head. Perfect yuzu flavor, sweet orange notes, biscuit, spicy. Light, peppery carbonation is also perfect. Awesome beer. Really great use of fruit, working it with the spicy farmhouse yeast. Not too sweet, complex.
