This ale is ready to be enjoyed now or, like the illusory tales from the mill, will become more complex over time.

Poured into a tulip, the appearance was a soft golden yellow color with a finger’s worth of white foamy head that fell off at a decent pace. Sly messy lace.
The aroma had some lemon pulp and rind, light leather, earthiness, grassiness, some banana, vinous must, light funk and a little bit of floral hop tones.
The flavor was moderately sweet with an ample amount of funk, earthiness and grassiness. Subtle white pepper slid in underneath. Aftertaste was funky and grassy. Finish was the same.
The palate was almost medium bodied with a fairly good sessionable sort of feel to it. Carbonation felt fine. ABV felt fine.
Overall, pretty good saison, if you like the funkier ones.

Pours hazy gold into a tulip. Bright white head with excellent retention recedes leaving sheet lacing. Dusty peach and lemon aromas. Sweet apricot and chardonnay upfront turning to dusty yeast in the lasting finish.

Keg at the brewery. Hazy yellow, large creamy white head, good retention. Aroma of Brett, yeast, bready malt, lemon. Taste is brett, yeast, lime zest. Medium bodied, high carbonation.

Bottle shared by someone tonight, thanks! Slightly hazy deep yellow with a decent off white head. Earthy spicy with some bready maltiness to back it up. Not bad.

750 ml bottle purchased at 7-11 Kittery, ME. Nose is a nice Belgian yeast, rye grain and wheat. Very nice flavors of yeast, lightly spicy grain, very light citrus bitterness near the backend has just the slightest touch of funk. Body is in the medium range with and refreshing, dry aftertaste.
The overall taste, low ABV with a very mellow funky brettanomyces, make it a real easy drinker. Real nice to try.
