Pour is a cloudy blonde with a small white head. Aroma is a minor spice and clove. Flavor is fruity, I’m thinking peach, followed but a bit of wheat malt and sugar. Not really saison in fact I don’t know what this is trying to be. It’s a fruity tasting under carbonated malt beverage.

A golden saison with a thin white head. In aroma, sweet candy sugar with light citrus and tropical fruits. In mouth, a sweet fruity malt with coriander and ginger, dryish.

Thanks to Rogueone for sharing a growler. Pours a hazy straw color with a medium white head that burns away steadily. Strings of lacing on the glass. Aroma of fruit, yeast and malt. Light to medium body with flavors of ripe fruit, earthy yeast and malt. The finish is fruity with a slightly funky aftertaste. Decent overall.

Bottle. Lightly musty orange malt aroma. Golden yellow with nice head. Lightly sweet orange-lemon malt and mildly bitter herbal/pepper flavor. Not bad.

12 oz bottle. Pours a hazy golden with a white head. Strong yeasty clove and bubble gum aroma, a bit of berry and candy. Flavor is pretty similar, yeasty clove and bubble gum with just a touch of sugary candy, a little earthiness, pepper, herbs, and berry. Actually quite good.

Hazy, yellow-gold with a short white head. Straw and lemon aroma. Taste is tart-sweet citrus, a dash of peppery spice. Much like a witbier. Average.

Lemon and yellow apple nose, light funk. Cloudy amber, thick head, effervescent, minimal lacing. Banana, whole lemon flavor, more of the latter. Alcohol is somewhat noticeable.
