Can from the brewery, mail order. Big, bright, yuzu nose, bready malts, spicy yeast. Slightly hazy deep gold with a low, thick head. Brilliant yuzu flavor with bready malt and saison yeast, full on but so tasty. Crisp and refreshing.

Can from the brewery. Big yuzu nose with some biscuit malt and yeasty phenols. Medium golden orange, clear, low thick head. Crisp citrus flavor, bready malts, light spice. Crisp and clean with a zesty, pithy finish. Lovely again.

Bottle, thank you Davido. Yellow hazy bottom pour with light foam on the top. Nose is sharply fresh, zesty citrus, clean. Taste is also displaying the fruit nicely, light and citrusy. Very clean and enjoyable.

Bottle from the brewery. 375ml demi. Hazy pastel gold with a low, airy head. Big yuzu nose, zesty, slightly spicy from the saison yeast, light biscuit malt. Huge yuzu flavor, crisp and bright, somewhat light in the malt. Spicy yeast goes well. Light and crisp with a dry, spicy finish. Very nice. I preferred last year's 6% version because it had more malt (and also yeast) character to stand up to the yuzu, but this is a fine yuzu showcase and good for New Year's morning with your mochi.

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.
