Big foam on a cloudy light yellow body, quite nice. Good banana aroma, slight dough, a bit of rustic grain way back there. Taste is plenty of banana, very soft cereal grain, ending smooth. Easy and well made, refreshing.

473mL can, pours a clear pale golden blonde with a medium white head. Aroma reveals a very pleasant saison yeast character upfront, replete with black pepper and citrus. Flavour is full of spicy saison yeast, vibrant citrus, esters, some gentle peppery notes, and a crisp biscuity malt on the back-end. I like the yeast profile here, though it is a tad on the estery side, which I'd prefer toned down. Still, good stuff for a North American saison.

Draught at the brewery. Light gold. There is some fruity notes, estery, like rockets. Not bad but not going anywhere for me.

Poured from the tap at the taproom. Slightly hazy golden yellow with minimal white head. Light Belgian yeast, simple and clean.
