Half at the Raven, Glasgow. Murky gold, not much head. Dry, herby aroma with a dash of citrus. The flavour is that of a fairly easygoing, yeasty, citrusy saison with a touch of mint. As simple as that. And it’s fairly pleasant. Bit lightweight though, both in body and strength. Could go a bit more oomph but it’s fine otherwise.

Bottle, large sample. Hazy yellow color, short head. Aroma of cucumber, mint, slight flowery, bit peppery yeast. Like and cream and chives with cucumber. Bit sour in taste, cucumber, slight grainy sweetness. Interesting, ewsy drinkable and quite tasty considering only 2.9%. Good.

Bottle shared at home. Slight hazy golden with short lasting white head. Mint, lime, quite mineral, light grains, herbs, lemon. Very light in the taste, just a touch of sourness and herbal bitterness. Thin bodied with fizzy carbonation. None dry and a bit watery feel. Nice for the ABV.

From tap @Oersoep Craft Beer Festival 2015, light and pale golden-slightly orange, with a white head. aroma is very fresh, the mint is immediately noticeable, cucuber, herbs, zweet. Taste is very thin-light, cucumber, mint, soft acidic notes, slightly bitterness, weak body with a huge sweet minty aftertaste. --- Beer aliased from original tick of Fyne & Wild - Cool As A Cucumber on 25 May 2018 at 13:13 - Score: 6
