Bottle. Much better than the previous Saison. Aroma is grainy, bit of yuzu maybe and boozy. Less full on than the other saison and I'm pleased they've toned it down a little. Taste is more full on on the yuzu, not exactly my thing but much more subtle than the last one and all the better for it, in my opinion.

A golden beer, a head is medium and white. Aroma has fruitness, spicyness and some unspecified weird and sweet nuancee, hint of banana. Taste has fruitness, spicyness, sweetness of banana, citrus. Medium bodied. Quite unique, wit-nuanced, good beer, but could be more refreshning.

Bottle from Hoults Wine Merchants, Huddersfield. Golden with a head. Has a bit of a fizz about it, but nothing too detrimental. There's some fruitiness in its nose, some in taste, slightly soured.

Gushing white frothy head stayed on a hazy, highly effervescent dark golden body. Funky, earth, spicy & dull citrus aroma. Medium to thin bodied, soft on the palate, minimal carbonation & a dry aft. Taste is similar to the aroma with funk, outdoors, zesty citrus, spice & a peppery finish.
