Keg from Broood@VinQuatre, Leicester. Light gold, cloudy with a wisp of white head. Candy sugar, orange peel, malt and sweet spice on the nose. Gentle sweet taste with spicy yeast and fruity bitter hops in the finish. Light creamy body, gentle carbonation. Delicious.

Keg at the wolf. A hazed orange coloured pour with a lasting fine white head. Aroma is juicy, apricot, mango, pithy citrus. Flavour is composed of vanilla, creamy, mango smoothie, spicy citrus hop, pine,. Flavour is composed of frothy carbonation, airy, wheat, and spicy carbonation. Not bad.

Cask @ Shrewsbury Real Ale Festival, July 2018. Pours a misty golden yellow, smooth on the palate with light soft exotics, some melon and citric exotics. Wouldn't peg it in the Saison box personally.

Keg at the Wolf, Bingoham, 23/06/18. Hazed golden with a decent off white cap. Nose is ripe tropical fruits, juicy citric flesh, melon, straw. Taste comprises soft breads, light yeast tickle, mandarin, apricot jam, citric pith, bread dough, tangerine. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying spiked with juicy hop bitterness. Decent number but if I were blind tasting I'd have had this as an APA!

Keg at Cheltenham Craft Beer and Cider Festival 2018. Murky golden with an enormous white head. Aroma of light tropical fruits, very subtle yeast. Taste of tropical fruits, very pithy, little to no saison character in this, bitter pithy finish. Medium bodied, soft carbonation.
