750ml bottle. Cloudy yellow pour, with a big white head. Aroma is very herbal, and lemony. Notes of tea, and freshly cut grass. Notes of bog myrtle, hints of earthy peat and somemlight juniper. Mouth feel is soft, same for the carb. Finish is lightly bitter, some yeasty flavours, more herbs and grasses, hints of resinous hops.

22oz bomber, ~2 years old, shared by AdamC on 7/8/17.
Small ring of white head tops a clear, bronze-gold body with lighter hay hues.
Floral/herbal notes from light Sacch acidity and mild phenols are somewhat muted by light biscuit and honey from the malt and there’s not a whole lot of saison character, or really beer character, for that matter, but it’s clean enough and shows no alcohol.
In the mouth it’s a bit too sweet, with loose, low carbonation not helping to clear the sugars and preventing the finish from being more crisp than it could. Still a bit adjunct-forward, though the "arctic herbs" aren’t bad. Just rather vegetal/floral and spicy. It sort of replaces the lack of actual saison character, in some way, but the honey-drenched malts are a bit too dominant on the slightly sluggish finish. Lightly fruity esters, little/no bitterness and not very saison-like, though nothing bad going on here.

22 oz bottle shared by AdamChandler, about a 2 years old. Where is this brewery from?? What town? Pale grain aroma, a herbal garden. Maybe honey. The flavor is mostly herbal, some orange peel, very clean malt / grain bill. Crisp palate, light body. Decent.

Bottle from the LCBO. Hazy pale gold under a one finger white head that fades gradually. Nose is honey, grass, some floral notes, light citrus, light yeast, some funk and a touch of spice. Light+ honey sweetness with an herbal spice and a moderate tartness. Mouth is medium slick with prickly carbonation and a tart finish. Enjoyable. 8/3+/7+/4/16

Has a huuge foamy head of good solidity and heavily carbonated foggy body of yellow, kinda reminds me of that gin that also uses arctic herbs. Aroma is yeasty, soft Belgian strong ale notes. Flavour is dry grain, sharp cereals. Very malty, no indication they used herbs but nonetheless highly drinkable.

Tasting at Matt’s
The bottle is a slow gusher; cloudy dark blond color with frothy head. Spicy aroma, a bit herbal. Dry, too much fermentation (it refermented in the bottle); the flavor is spicy and mildly herbal, some orange peel, correct bitterness.
Quite nice.

Bottle with a metal bottle-opener and chain. Hazy light-golden yellow colour, shinning with a frothy white cap, good retention and some thick foam, but not sticking to much. Belgian Ale yeast aromas with the herbs and light sugars, fruitiness. Nice bitterness with the herbs. Orange flavours with the sweet yeast and other fruitiness. A pretty good Saison with nice herbal notes that is quite refreshing.

Bottle: Poured a hazy blonde color ale with a large foamy head with good retention and some good amount of lacing. Aroma of rustic malt and light herbal notes is quite enticing. Taste is also a great mix of herbal notes with rustic malt and light residual sugar notes. Body is full with limited filtration and good carbonation. I love the dry finish and the level of attenuation of this beer.
