Not bad, though not what I would consider a traditional farmhouse ale. I don’t pick up much sign of the maple syrup. Slightly more sweet then bitter. I would have preferred it the other way around. Yeasty.. Good body and finish.

750 ml bottle. Pours a cloudy deep golden color with a medium-sized rocky beige head. Fresh, funky, yeasty citrus nose. Tart bready malt flavor has obvious maple syrup notes. Slightly funky, earthy yeast character is met by a sweet alcohol twang. Finish is dry and bittersweet with a nice apocolyptic citrus peel zip.

22 oz bottle poured and shared by Maxwell. Thanks! Pours a super hazy yellow color with a big white foam head. Huge lingering yeast flavor thoughout, and well into the late palate. Slightly sour, and has a definite maple and spice flavor background. Really enjoyed this one. Fun beer.

Crystal clear golden coloured body with a thick, three centimetre tall pure white head - how is this bottle conditioned, there is no sediment at all!?! Aroma of yeast, funk, grass, hay, earth, flowers, alcohol and a bit of pure caster sugar. Medium to Full-bodied; Strong floral and grassy yeast up front with a large malt presence of wheat and crystal malt along with some alcohol, sugars, grass and a good deal of yeast. Aftertaste shows a slightly bitter funk at the end with a large yeast and alcohol note and only a touch of of the sugars with not much grassy and herbal elements. Overall, a decent saison at best and almost completely missing the elements that made me buy this - maple syrup and any aspect of a Belgian-themed beer, minus the style. Not really worth buying, but this won’t stop people, because it’s a Southern Tier beer, but if I could do it again, I’d pass on this. I sampled this 75 cL bottle purchased from Total Wine in Chantilly, Virginia on 31-January-2015 for US$9,49 when the store got the bottle on 13-January-2015 sampled at home in Washington on 14-March-2015.

Poured from a bottle it is a cloudy goldn color with a slight head. The aroma is yeasty with s hint of maple syrup. The taste is dough that has an edge of spice and a hint if maple that finishes bitter
