Dark brown to black beer under a huge dense, dark-cream head. Bit of diacetyl coming through? Little saltiness, and further some dark malts. Clear dark malts, bit of chocolate, or chocobeans. Slick MF, nearly oily. This beer is far from unnice, but to use dark malts in a Saison is in fact a contradictio in terminis.

Sample at the brewpub. This beer is a dark brownish-black color with a medium tan head that diminishes steadily. Stringy lacing on the glass. Somewhat vinous aroma with notes of yeast and spice. Medium body with flavors of grapes, toasted malt, yeast and sweet spice. The finish is fruity and sweet. Above average overall.
