Formerly known as “Wildflower”, this Saison has blossomed into something fresh. Reflecting the variety of wildflower, this specialty release infuses a Belgian Farmhouse Ale with chamomile, elderflower, and hibiscus for a balanced bouquet of spice and bloom.

Big head, crashing nicely. The aroma has spicy yeast, lots of florals, big spicy peppery, and the malts are toasty, well-balanced and there is a fresh character with nice complexity.

750mL bottle, pours a murky dark orange / brown with a large off-white head. Aroma brings out loads of floral notes, a little chamomile, and soft bready notes. Flavour is extremely floral and chamomile-y, with the spices absolutely dominating everything. Not much saison character left. This could be more enjoyable with less of the flower and chamomile, but as is, it's not really my thing.

Updated rating Aug 2015: 650 ml bottle. Pours a cloudy amber with moderate head. Aromas of light brett, fruit candy and perfume. Flavors of grapes, light gummy bears, camomile and toasted malts. A little heavier and fruity than previous. Much nicer. Original rating Oct 2013: 650 ml bottle. Pours amber with moderate head. Aromas of candy and perfume. Flavors of grapes, gooseberries, and toasted malts, with a dry floral hint. A bit of a mix up. 6/4/6/3/12
