Reviewed from notes.
Bottle to tulip.
Appearance: copper color with a slight transparency about and a quarter finger's worth of white foamy head which dissipated nicely to leave some light lace
Aroma: funky to mineral water -like with some wet grains; white pepper and a touch of sour to tart quality with a subtle Brett/sour character underneath that
Flavor: combines the prior noted aromas to a fine sweet to sour quality up front with a subtle spicy backing and some pomme-fruity sweet tones entering in for a light balance; finishes semi-dry with a touch of spicy to tart notes
Texture: medium bodied; this is a sipper!; light smoothness with expected dryness but a nice dryness; good carb level
Overall: very nicely done tart saison I would welcome again.

750 mL bottle drunk 8/12/23. Clear copper-bronze. Medium-sized, white head slowly fades to nothing. Brett and sacch share space with a rustic grains and minerality. Great strength of aroma with plentiful black pepper. Clean. Big burst of sacch acidity is very enjoyable received initially. Deep, biscuity malts are well attenuated and there is apple, pear and stone fruit ester aplenty with black pepper and just-emerging Brett acidity. Another elegant Brett saison from these guys...

Bottle shared in NH. Pours clear gold with a small, creamy white head. Lightly sweet, mellow funk, citrus nips, light lemon balm, a little salty. Light bodied with delicate carbonation. Clean and quenching finish, more mellow salty bite, citric twang. Quite tasty and drinkable.

Bottle @ home via trade. Cage was extremely tightly wound and the cork immediately shot off. Pours a clear, golden yelloiw-orange appearance with a huge white head. Black pepper, spicy yeast, funky brett, grass/herbal, somewhat fruity nose. The aroma nicely shows off the brett. The flavor is also pretty peppery though there is a little bit of plastic. Quite herbal. Pretty refreshing. Fun to drink.

Purchased a 750 at the brewery. Massive carbonation level that made the cork fly off after two twists of the cage. Pretty nice aroma of lemon rind, peppery yeast, and a good amount of Brettanomyces. The flavor has a small level of Brett throughout the sip. Right now it still shows a great level of citrus. Very nice mouthfeel, with a crisp effervescent finish. I enjoyed this a lot.

Poured from bottle thanks Airforcehops. Pours gold with a 2 finger foamy white head. Aromas of brett funk and spice. Taste is very effervescent and thin with notes of funk yeast and a lingering bitterness that seems slightly stale.
