375ml bottle sampled during Aussie trip 2017-18. Pours clear pale golden with a loose white head. Aroma: light acidity, subtle Belgian yeast, white wine grapes, citrus & honey. Taste: dry, light tart, bready malts, bitter lemon, orange, hint of honey. Light to medium body, spritzy mouthfeel, soft carb with a dry, light sweet finish. Not a saison though, despite being classified as one here

Next time I’ll use a glass with a bigger head! Pour slowly as leaves a huge head. Floral and fruity notes. Very enjoyable, save for the overcarb. Saison not a style I am familiar with so will definitely revisit.

Bottle. Slightly doughiness on nose. Pours golden and slightly cloudy. Big fizz on palate. Some tartness and grassy flavours. I’m not getting the honey at all. The differences from the core saison is unclear.

[6/14] Gold with a excessively huge white head. Aroma of hay, light dough, floral honey, orange blossoms. Sweet honeyed dough, just sourish oranges, peppery and mildly bitter and dry at the end. High carbonation. Very lovely honey notes, lovely balance. More than met high expectations. [4.0][3/15] BB 1/15 but really hasn’t dropped off at all. Again, ridiculously huge head: a 375ml bottle into a 600ml glass is 5/6th head and the foam of the remainder is creeping out of the bottle after 5 minutes. But it’s _not_ overcarbonated to drink, about normal for a saison. And other than that this is just top drawer.[10/15] Another batch 1, BB 1/15. Now a moderate though determined gusher. Not changed that much: drier now with honey and dough yielding more to under-ripe nectarines. Some minerals. Still quite floral. Still buying this, just using a big glass.[2/18] A new batch. More sensible head - fits in a Duvel glass. Aroma is different, having some lemon and earthy notes as well as crackery dough and honey. I like the combination of creamy texture, floral honey with seeming sweetness and dry finish.
