Il gusto al naso resta attratto dal fruttato. L'intensità olfattiva è elevata e la maniera in cui permane è sufficiente. Il mantello birroso superiore ha una buona tenuta. La grandezza delle bollicine è medio-fine. Il liquido è di consistenza limpida. Bollicine medio-fini costituiscono anche la forma della frizzantezza, con carbonazione vivace, persistente ed insistita. Il colore è giallo dorato brillante. Il corpo è pieno. Il dolce è medio. L'amaro è poco presente. La forza gustativa è elevata e permane in maniera sufficiente. Le sensazioni boccali finali risultano di birra beverina. Il retrogusto è di decente intensità. In bocca l'aroma è quello di miele, frutta secca, agrumi, spezie, arancia, limone, erbe aromatiche, vino bianco, pepe bianco e sour.

On tap at Elizabeth Station. Pours clear blonde with a white head. Saison yeast on the nose, cracker malts, some grains, some phenols in the background. Flavour has a spicy saison character up front, but doesn't really carry through. Malts are decent. The saison bit is there, but is muddled and come across pretty amateurish. Disappointing given that Hill Farmstead co-produced this.

Into a tulip.
Appearance: golden yellow color with a two and a quarter fingers of white foamy head which dissipated at a nice pace and left some light lace
Aroma: sweet vinous to herbal and mixed citrusy notes; Brett sweet and sour notes; hay/straw notes; subtle woody spice notes
Flavor: melds the prior noted aromas to a fine sweet to sour to tart to subtle spice way down in there; finishes mostly sour to tart with discernible dryness
Texture: light to medium bodied; leaning to being a sipper; some smoothness but also an appropriate level of tartness nicking the tongue as well as a vinous-like/champagne sort of higher carb character to this (I expected this despite not exactly very warm to it)
Overall: this is well brewed but leaning a bit more towards wine which isn't my thing.

Framgrävd från de djupa gömmorna, flaska märkt bäst före-år: 2020. Halmgul klar vätska med virilt och spritzigt skumlock. Pigga aromer av päronskal, säd och lite torkat hö. Markerad maltighet med balanserad höig beska. Fruktigheten har passerat zenit men en örtig närvaro räddar helheten. Överraskande god för sin ålder, eller med andra ord: en långlagrare som grinstrar med sin klokare smak.

Tåkete gulbrun med høyt skum som raskt daler. Mye kullsyre. Lukter og smaker gjær, gress, urter, malt og noe frukter.

75cl bottle no year mentioned anywhere as far as I can see. 6%
opened with a giant shaken champaigne like BANG but no beer spilled out so well done.
tons of brett in the aroma, also some hay, very dry and non-sweet, very balanced. crisp. flavor is grassy with notes of hay and a lot of brett dryness and yeastiness. quite refreshing and a strong bretty flavor for a 6%er. far from as sweet as most biere de garde, and imho much better. perhaps a bit onesided bitter yeasty but otherwise a fine saison.

Pake gold pour white head. Kind of a weird spicy hoppy bit on top of malt and herbal notes. Ok.
