A refreshing Saison, with pronounced ingredients like basil and ginger. The name says it already, this beer is exciting with an uppercase letter E. It has a very inviting amber glow. Sultry, sweet and sexy. The taste is smooth, round and balanced but pronounced.

Bottle @ Beers and Barrels. Hazy golden coloured with a white head. Nose is yeasty, fruity, and basil, a bit soapy. Flavour is malty, yeasty, and a bit herbal. Not very well done.

Hazy blond. It’s one of those Saisons that lacks subtlety. Very floral and herbal. Too much.

Bottle shared at GBBF. It pours cloudy gold with a thick white head. The aroma is rather unique.... earth, spicy, herbal, very savoury, hot dogs, umami and a touch of lime. The taste is crisp, bitter lemon-lime peel, ginger spice, salty, herbal notes and again with that hot dog character. Medium body and moderate, foamy carbonation. Very savoury and sort of meaty. Unique that’s for sure.
