Can. A clear gold pour with just a wisp of a head of foam. A sweet fruit, wheat and very mild spice aroma. Medium to light bodied with a raspy carbonation and seems over-gassed. It sits in the pit of my stomach like a gassy bomb. The taste is rough: some kind of hop extract or something that gives it a herbal medicinal hoppiness and then a cardboard lame maltiness. I was expecting more as the look and aroma were alright but the taste/body were a bit of a mess. Ugh.

Can from Sankus. Drank from the can. Big fruity yeast esters with peach and apple standing out strong. Almost cider like in a way. Very sweet and cloying on the nose. Some light spice, and perfume-bottle flavors on the palate. Boozy for the abv, and flavors don’t meld well. Too heavy and bready for the style. Cloying and gross. Nope, not a saison in the least. --- Beer merged from original tick of Craft Select Saison on 15 Jul 2016 at 21:11 - Score: 4. Original review text: Weird spice and too thin....yuck

Can. Nice enough nose, actually. Light crackery hops, lemon, grapefruit, sweet orange, light Belgian spicy yeast. Sweet, fruity flavor, malts get a bit heavy, plus a touch of candy, sweet orange mostly. Body is heavy and a bit flat. Not bad, but should be crisper, lighter, and hoppier in the finish as well.
