From tap at De Molen during Borefts β15. Aroma of fruits, citrus, some yeasty notes, floral, hoppy notes. Flavour is lightly sweet and moderate to medium bitter. Body is medium. Not big on Saison funky yeast, but it has a refreshing bitter fruity hoppy character. Very nice.

Notes from October 2012 Bottle from Made in Oregon. Duvel tulip. Foggy honey orange body. A generous off-white head that jiggles like Jello. Attempts to even top it off are thwarted, as it simply runs off the sides. Pretty, but half a point off for making me wait. :P Smells of tangerine rind, floral, menthol, earthy yeast. -Edited to note that I do smell the pear others have mentioned, though only when taking in shallow, open breaths. Crisp & chalky. The pale ale malts are throwing me off, but the mellow tartness & grassy yeast sort of put things back in place. Toasty sweetness & some sharp rind on the drying finish. Faintly metallic. Bitterness is right there, without being vulgar. Frothy. Bright & refreshing. Just lacks a bit for a saison. Really easy. Enjoyed it, but it gets a lower overall score, because it seems like it would be more rewarding in 4-packs.

clear yellow, smooth offwhite head. aroma is bretty, sweet flowery, grassy, dry, herbal. overall really nice. flavor is sweet flowery, good fainter belgian yeasty bitterness and spiciness, overall the flavor is bittersweet but one of the rare kinds of bittersweet i actually find pleasing. I tastes a little bit like a french biere de garde, but more like a belgian saison. the combination or middle ground works quite surprisingly well.

Bottle from Pivoteka, 5$, guessing 3 years old. Murky amber body, lasting big white head. Lovely herbal lemony and slightly funky aroma. Bitterish herbal-citrusy tea-like taste. Dry, lean, bit watery, mild, but tasty stuff. Prefer the 4 buy just by a little margin.
