Finishes sweet with some florals. Pours blonde with ok head and lacing. The mikkeller killed my taste so much that I couldn’t tell the difference between this and a landbier at first. Tap at Churchkey.

330ml bottle from Saveur-Biere
Pours dark orange with a smooth white head. Aroma of strong herbal and earthy notes, yeast, spices and floral fruitness. Taste is sweet, floral and earthy with some murky maltiness, grass and dirt. Finish is sweetish, fruity and herbal with some hints of spices and floral notes. Quite unbalanced saison.

Bottle shared by Martinus @ weekly tasting. Slightly unclear rusty orange color, no head. Smell and taste are a bit weird, maybe slightly a touch of fruits, lightly floral. Average body and carbonation. Meh.

Lively carbonation, mounting to huge, rather dense and agitated cream-coloured head over copper-amber, clear beer. End of bottle some yeast. First dry spices, then toasted/caramel with parsley. Hint at rosemary, conifer and flowers. Bitterish, bit hoppy, ending again floral, faintly fruity. Not exactly a tastebomb. Light body, refreshing but certainly not your ultimate thirstquencher. Spritzy carbonation. Aftertaste is virtually neutral. Simple, decent beer, but in the end a bit of a could-have-done-better.

Hazy amber with quick fading head. Very malty aroma with some floral notes. Quite flat. Sweet, malty, floral, light perfume flavours.

Imported from my RateBeer account as Thiriez / Saint Somewhere Florida (by Thiriez):
Aroma: 4/10, Appearance: 3/5, Taste: 4/10, Palate: 2/5, Overall: 8/20, MyTotalScore: 2.1/5
9/III/14 - 33cl bottle from Geers (Oostakker) @ home - BB: V/2015, bottled: 13/XII/13 (2014-266)
Little cloudy dark orange beer, irregular fluffy off-white head, little stable, non adhesive. Aroma: very spicy and herbal, thyme, laurel, broth, actually it just smells like "stoofvlees" (Belgian beef and beer stew). MF: ok carbon, medium to light body. Taste: little sweet, some citrus, bit soapy, very herbal, stoofvlees again, bit floral. Aftertaste: more of the same weird stuff. You know what? I'm just gonna use the rest of this beer to make stoofvlees, there you go.

Bottle from Dranken Geers, Oostakker, Gent, consumed at home on Thursday 13th February 2014. Light amber quite high carbonation, a large white head atop. Aroma is a little mushy but saison like I am not getting the floral touch, either in mouth or nose. Its ok but can’t say I am overly impressed. A6 A4 T6 P3 Ov11 3.0

Bouteille 33cl de Geers, Lot#392, BB 05/2015. De couleur cuivrée, col blanc léger. Arôme présente très peu en terme d’hibiscus. On retrouve plus un bouquet grains très français aux effluves de céréales. Palais est légèrement malté, pointe de caramel avec un hibiscus modérée. Effervescence est bcp trop haute à mon goût. Garde un certain côté rustique à la française surtout au niveau de la levure. Le houblonné arrive en fin de bouche et est également un peu pénalisé par l’effervescence importante de la bière. L’hibiscus me semble plus rappeler l’hibiscus d’apéro au côté un peu trop sucré. Au final, et en comparant avec les bières de Saint-Somewhere, cette offre de Thiriez est une grande déception. On pense donc à une recette qui a été élaborée en dernière minute, dommage alors que l’on sait que Thiriez peut faire bcp mieux.
