75cl bottle @ PBF Ⅸ, bottled 27.04.2013
Aroma has grapefruit and citrus. Also funky earthy notes and ’farmyard’ aromas. Flavour has strong grapefruit and citrus notes. Foamy palate. A saison on the tart side, which lacks the yeasty notes typical to this category.

Hazy yellow color, small steady white head. Light barnyard, tartness in the nose. Light to medium--bodied. Citrus, tartness and barnyard in the flavor. Berliner Weisse like grapefruity sourness in the aftertaste. Interesting.
