From tap at Copenhagen Beer Celebration 2014. Clear yellow golden color with white head. Malty, hoppy and yeasty aroma, citrusy fruity, grassy, funky, spicy. Sweet and light bitter taste like aroma. Light to medium almost oily body with soft carbonation.

650ml bottle from Brewdog Agm, shared with jeevan. Pours clear golden, light haze, thick white head. Aromas of lemon, grapefruit, saison yeast character. Taste is more citrus and bready yeast. Refreshing, bitter finish.

Hazy yellow-golden color with white head. Aroma is peppery, spicy yeasts, lemony, phenolic, some banana. Taste is light, dry, peppery, refreshing, a little bit alcoholic. A nice and well-balanced Saison!

Slightly hazy golden colour, firm white head. Aroma of yeast, banana, malts, saison and Tripel yeast. Light sweet malty flavour, bit bitter, yeast. Quite dry. Finish yeast, malts, banana, cloves. Bit in between a tripel and a saison. Nice and refreshing, bit alcoholic for the style though. (from 66cL bottle @ ElManana?s Masaman Chili tasting, Gent. Thanks for sharing, Bjorn!)
