Dégustée en fût au Vices & Versa à Montréal. De couleur orange-dorée et voilée. Nez de grains de céréales sucrées, moyen de pain de seigle, léger de houblon herbeux aux notes florales et léger de levures fruitées (agrumes, léger d’abricots avec des traces de bananes) aux petites notes épicées. Moyennement ronde en bouche avec un pétillement moyen et une texture moyennement crémeuse. Moyen goût de levures fruitées (agrumes, traces d’abricots et de bananes) aux notes épicées (clou de girofle, traces de poivre) lors de l’entrée en bouche auquel se rajoute un goût de grains de céréales sucrées avec un moyen goût de pain de seigle (notes asséchantes) ainsi que des traces de biscuits puis en finale l’on retrouve une légère-moyenne amertume de houblon herbeux (herbes mouillées) aux faibles notes florales. Post-goût moyen et moyennement sec, moyen-léger amer de houblon herbeux avec des notes fruitées (zest d’agrumes) et des traces de blé. (printemps 2007)

Bottle: Poured a cloudy dirty beige color ale with a huge light dirty brown color head with great retention and some very good lacing. Aroma of funk and farmyard is quite intense with some light apricot and some light spices. Taste is quite complex to describe though yeast is properly the main component that produces a very funky taste with light fruit notes of apricot and candy. Body is full with limited filtration and great carbonation. Very well brewed and somewhat disappointed that I can’t find this more easily.

Sampled at Max’s in Baltimore. Pours a transparent orange amber with very little cloudy white head. Aroma is floral, herbal, sugary. Flavor is sweet, malty, oranges, tropical fruits, passion fruit. Finish is full bodied, sweet.

Draught at Churchkey, recommendation from Sam. Clear orange, white edge head, good lacing. Aroma is sour orange peel and bubblegum, very nice. Taste is disappointing, sour start followed by unbalanced sweet bitterness. Oh well.

A lightly hazed golden saison with a very thin white head. Pleasant aroma of bananas, cloves light anise and berries. In mouth, a sweet an oily saison, with bananas and strawberries, notes of cloves and herbal mint. A very nice and enticing beer. On tap at Vices et Versa, 6 Feb. 2008.
